Event Description
Since 2019, Gila Münster ("g-ee-l-ah m-uh-n-s-t-eh-r") has entertained audiences both onstage and in unconventional venues such as libraries, schools, unions, corporate events, universities, temples, community centers, and more. She is best known for her family-friendly programming such as “Drag Queen Story Time,” for producing the marquee event “8 Gays of Channukah – The Musical,” and for being a prolific cross-stitcher.
In November 2023, Gila was awarded the Mayworks Festival of Working People and the Arts Creative Maverick Award for her dedication to promoting working people through the arts. In June 2023 she was selected to march with the Toronto Public Library in the Toronto Pride Parade, protesting censorship in front of 2.4 million spectators. She is the first drag queen approved as a vendor for the Toronto District School Board, and the 2025 “Best Entertainment Services” winner in the Canadian Choice Awards.
Besides being a talented queen, Gila is a trained makeup artist, an award-winning slam poetry champion, a live singer in English and in Hebrew, standup comic, and public speaker. In her free time Gila enjoys stitching, which she has exhibited in galleries in Toronto and Kingston, and for which she has won awards in the Markham Fair. Outside of drag, Gila is a J.D. candidate at Queen’s University in Kingston, and a certified Project Management Professional with nearly a decade of award-winning customer-service experience.
