World Pride Storytime

Celebrate WorldPride and Enlighten Festival's Pride Weekend with story time at the National Library!

We had a fabulously fun time in our Foyer with drag king Guy Alias and drag queen Dolli with an i.

There were stories, songs, wonderful performances and some craft activities to entertain attendees.

This event was suitable for pre-school and primary school aged children, however the event could also be enjoyed by young people outside this range (some may require supervision) and their families.

Introducing Canberra’s sweetheart! Dolli with an i is a colourful glam songstress with two left feet.

Although she’s both sharp with a makeup brush and blunt with a read, she always embodies grace and kindness. This queen shows up only to out perform herself and bring you variety every time she takes centre stage.

Dolli has been popping in and out of the Capital’s drag scene for 4 years, consistently serving fierce looks, comedy and live vocals ranging from show tunes to country bangers.

Dolli with an i is making a name for herself amongst her audiences and wants to bring you along for the vivacious adventure.
