Daphne Ferraro is professionally trained comedic drag queen with 20+ years of entertainment experience. She has years of theatrical experience, which allows her to emcee shows and leverage her improv skills and quick-witted personality to entertain groups of all sizes. She can be booked as a solo artist, can host an event, or produce full-scale drag productions, like her original show The Evolution of Drag.
Daphne enjoys creating parodies of popular songs, and leverages her live singing abilities to stand out in a sea of drag queens. It also helps that she's 7' tall. She's always down for a good time or friendly prank, and isn't too proud to make a scene or misbehave.
Daphne is extraordinary on so many levels. Ive not only been to her shows, but also had privilege of working with her/ him at his “day” job on a very complex project that she/he outlined, oversaw, executed (dozens of people to manage and complicated scenes in rapid fire) he did all of that while having a genuinely good time, respecting everyone, and made it fun for everyone. Daphne is brilliantly creative and focused.
We hosted a Drag Bingo for our corporate recruiting/HR team and let me tell you it was a blast! Coming from a group of people who are on zoom calls all day everyday this was one of the first calls we have all loved. I had multiple people reach out as soon as Bingo was over thanking me for booking Daphne and for making their night at home fun! She was so funny and kept it PG13 for our corporate group. She also was extremely easy to work with before the event and quick to respond to my million questions. Thanks Daphne for making our virtual event fun!
We used Daphne’s drag performances for our pride fundraiser. We were truly impressed. Our guests still talk about the performance. Great communication.
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Awwweeee! Wow! That’s so wonderful. Let’s do another one! Xo
Daphne did an amazing job with our virtual birthday event! She included facts about the guest and birthday girl in her performance which made it so much fun! I would highly recommend her for any event that you want to be fun and memorable!!
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Thank you so much! I truly enjoyed myself at the party and appreciate being your second choice. :)

My team hired Daphne for a virtual corporate event for a Pride celebration. Through out the process leading up to the event, Daphne was delightfully professional and creative thinker. As the hostess of our event, she was a consummate performer and entertainer. She kept our audience engaged and was able to keep the event funny but also family friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed her performance and skills as a hostess. Our audience LOVED her and we have received tremendous feedback about her. We look forward to definitely working with her in the future. 10/10 will hire again.
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Awwwweeee thank you so very much. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and can’t wait to do it again!
We can't say enough good things about working with Daphne Ferraro! She produced and staged one of the most successful fundraisers for Tampa Bay International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival (TIGLFF). Her EVOLUTION of DRAG is hilariously funny and had people up on their feet dancing in the aisles. She was professional, thorough, creative and on top of every detail!
She always says Yes! No matter whether to help us promote the Festival, put on a Fundraiser or brainstorm opportunities. If you are thinking about hiring her and her team, stop thinking and DO IT. She is simply the BEST.
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Oh, wow! Thank you so much for this kind review. I love working with you, and I am so happy that I met you so many years back. This has been a beautiful partnership and I look forward to continuing to work with you and TIGLFF in the future!
I first just want to say THANK YOU! To Daphne and To all those thinking of booking her- Just do it! Daphne was receptive, professional, and mindful of our corporate structure without ever losing her flare or quick wit. She engaged with each and every one of our participants and left the entire group feeling better than when they walked in. I have had the honor or seeing Daphne both in person and online and am so happy she was available to do our corporate event/fundraiser. I recommend her without hesitation!
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Thank you so much for your kind words and for including me in your event! It was one of the most fun times I’ve had hosting bingo, mostly due to your great people.
Daphne is an excellent entertainer in every sense of the word. She is professional, well-liked, promotes well, and always gets the crowd going!
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Thank you so much for the kind review! I love working with you in Dunedin!
I honestly don't need to say anything more than what I wrote in the title. Daphne is always a joy to work with. She is patient, honest, professional and very talented. Her live shows are award winning and working with her on camera is easy and fun. I always look forward to projects that include her.
Daphne is an absolute pleasure to work with. She is extremely professional, positively hilarious and a beautiful Queen to top it all off. She helped us roast a friend for his 45 birthday. Her performance, which was done remotely through ZOOM due to COVID made us all laugh, the birthday boy thanked us and said it was truly a memorable birthday surprise. I would highly recommend Daphne!!
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Thank you so much for having me. I had a great time and was happy to be able to bring a smile to the birthday boy's face. You were a pleasure to work with on this and I hope that you might consider telling others about your experience. I enjoyed the whole Zoom experience more than I thought I would. :) You are all awesome!
You just never know what she is gonna do or say, but you can always expect to be entertained!
Daphne is always punctual and prepared...such a delight!
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Thank you very much! I love you so much!
A Daphne Ferraro number isn't just a performance, it's a production. On top of entertaining those of us in the audience with unique music and more, she engaged us with charm, wit and above all: heart. She clearly loved every second of what she was doing, which made us love it too.
Response from Daphne Ferraro:
Thank you so much for your kind review, Ryan. I truly love what I do. Thank you for noticing.
