This past Pride, Toronto’s Rob Ford decided to break with the tradition of his mayoral predecessors and skip the city’s largest queer parade. He said he has been going to his cottage that weekend every year as a family tradition. Photographers went to see what the mayor did that day, but no one got the shot or the story. “I was there swinging on the tire and trying to ride my bike,” says Ivory Towers, the Queen of Sodom. “I’ve seen some things that a woman ain’t supposed to see — from my lawn chair.” This Sodom show is based on Ivory Towers’ interpretation of what happened at the Ford cottage that infamous weekend. Towers stars with Gemini award-winner Paul Bellini (Kids in the Hall) as Rob Ford and New Zealand’s drag sensation Judy Virago as Margaret Atwood along with fierce Aeryn Pfaff.
