Miss Conception Tooned Out Is Fabulously Fun At The Palm Cabaret. With a career spanning over 24 years, Kevin Levesque as Miss Conception has been delighting audiences around the world with his unique style of female illusion – “a Female Delusionist® if you will”, as Kevin puts it. This 2024 season, Miss Conception celebrates her 13th anniversary in PV and showcases her exciting new show, Tooned Out, on Mondays and Thursdays at 8 pm at The Palm Cabaret.
I had the opportunity to see the show this week and it is truly a ‘home run’ for the funny and oh-so-talented Miss Conception. This is Miss Conception’s 13th season in Vallarta and each year she manages to deliver a performance even more astonishing than the previous year. The costumes are simply stunning. The vocals are breathtaking and the improv and comedy are side-splitting fun! The performance moves from TV to Movie Cartoon Characters at record speed, including fabulously hilarious, spoofy parodies of these characters. Miss Conception’s 2 side-kicks in this year’s show are adorably funny as they help Miss C deliver each musical parody. It’s really hard to pick a favorite cartoon character because they are all so perfectly portrayed, although I do predict that Jessica Rabbit will be a favorite! Miss Conception’s Tooned Out is a “Must-See” show during your time in Vallarta! The loveable and spectacularly talented Miss Conception wants to “make your night” with a performance that will knock your socks off!
From her beginnings in Toronto bars to selling out audiences wherever she appears around the world, Miss Conception is a Big Deal in the International Drag Scene.
Miss Conception’s one-woman, live singing shows launch each new entertainment season in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and Provincetown, Massachusetts, delivering parodies and celebrating some of the greatest characters of movies and TV.
Featuring on-stage transitions from one character to another, with costume changes that happen before your very eyes, this season, Miss Conception takes you back to the most iconic Cartoons in history as you relive favorites from your childhood.
Miss Conception performs Barbie, Rainbow Brite, Scooby Doo, The Flintstones, He-Man/She-Ra, Inspector Gadget, Jessica Rabbit, Toy Story and more. With tons of instant costume changes and all-live vocals, come experience why this fabulous Drag Queen sells out shows around the world!
This season Miss Conception’s side kicks ( assistants ) are Isel Celis and Alberto Cuevas “ el diamanté “ The costumes were created by Jeff Christensen and Jose Luis “ JOSELO. “
Miss Conception travels internationally and has opened shows for comedian Leslie Jordan (Will and Grace) and singer Lorna Luft (daughter of Judy Garland) and has worked alongside Tony award-winning actress Jennifer Holliday (Dreamgirls). Other credits include Second City (Toronto), being featured on Queer as Folk and Degrassi: The Next Generation, as well as having the distinction of being the first contestant on Wipeout Canada to ever run the course in full drag.
On the high seas, Miss Conception is in demand as a featured performer on ocean and river cruises throughout Europe (Spain, Greece, Turkey, Portugal, Prague, Budapest, Italy, and France) with Brand G Vacations and Concierge Travel. She’s also the host and main performer of Aquafest cruises and Out Adventures.
This past summer, Miss Conception performed Tooned Out to adoring audiences in Provincetown, Massachusetts. Reviewer Stephen Desroches exclaimed, “Yabba dabba doo! If you’re looking for a good time that will leave a smile on your face and a heart full of love then Miss Conception is for you! Within minutes Miss Conception bounded onto stage as Jessie the Cowgirl Rag Doll from Toy Story 2 singing ‘I Want to Be a Cowboy’s Sweetheart,’ and had everyone clapping their hands above their heads and swaying to the music. In short, Miss Conception’s Tooned Out is a party from start to finish.”
This is one Diva who continues to take the world by storm with her Talent, Originality and Love! For more information, visit missconception.com. Don’t miss Tooned Out at 8:00 pm on Mondays & Thursdays at The Palm Cabaret.
This past December her world-renowned holiday show, Miss Conception – A Very Merry Sugar Tits Christmas was packed with comedy songs and classic sing-alongs that left us smiling from ear to ear and costume changes before our eyes that blew our minds.
Miss Conception is celebrating 25 years in Drag next year for her big anniversary at The Palm Cabaret. She walked into the venue in 2011 and saw Kim Kuzma on stage who asked what Kevin did for a living and he replied,, “ I’m a female Delusionist extraordinaire” and they sang “Sweet Caroline “ together. Kevin happened to have a CD that he gave to Mark Rome, and when he came back the next day, Mark said, “When do you wanna come next year ?“ Kevin replied, “Anytime,” and that’s when his life changed forever.
