El Convento Rico
- 750 College St. (at Crawford St.) • View on map »
- 416-588-7800
Once a queer Latin nightclub, this College Street staple is now a drag Disneyland, where straights (and a few gays) come to watch the “girls” do their big-haired thing. The drag is no different from what you can see almost any day of the week on Church Street, but the audience is a great deal more enthusiastic—it’s not uncommon to see stagette parties going head-to-head with the performers on the dance floor, proffering bills with their teeth. A good-hearted crowd thumps to a mix of Latin (salsa, merengue, bachata) alongside classic disco and Top 40 tunes. Open Friday and Saturday.
