I hired Dixie a couple hours before my event was suppose to start due to been let down right at the last min by another queen, she saved the night and made hours of panicking just disappear. i was holding a charity night and oh what a night she made it!! She’s hilarious and an amazing performer. The night was a huge success and Dixie played a huge part in that. She’s so great that we want to book her again. Honestly i can not rate her enough!! Definitely the best drag queen I have worked with! And her management Tara was really lovely to deal with and a great support to Dixie. I will never be able to thank you both enough.

After doing some research of drag queens we came across the fabulous Dixie, we made contact and her management team got back to us right away. We needed the crème de la crème of drag acts for our pride event and that’s what we got. Dixie and her management team are real nice & professional individuals, they made our booking so smooth.
Dixie arrived on the day with plenty of time to spare and set up her equipment, got her outfit changes set up and off she went. Dixie started with her introduction, a song or 2 followed with audience participation, walked around the venue chatting and making jokes with the customers.
Later into the night Dixie took to the DJ decks and danced the night away not forgetting having selfies with the customers, chatting with them and was just all round a lovely genuine talented person to be around. We will definitely be booking her to join us again in the near future, until then, much love, The Bulls Head, congleton

We hired Dixie for my sisters hen do and she really was the highlight of our entire weekend! Dixie performed the perfect mixture of comedy, banter, games, live singing, and lots of audience participation. I loved her witty humour and the way she commanded the room, even with 19 rowdy women to compete with! All of the hens were so happy with the evening and couldn’t stop talking about Dixie’s performance the next day. I would really recommend her for anyone’s hen do!! The bin bag dress game was probably the highlight! I also really appreciated the effort Dixie and her manager Tara went through to make sure the bride-to-be was completely surprised!
The whole process from booking Dixie to the actual performance was so professionally done, and she looked gorgeous! Booking with Dixie was also a very smooth process and her manager Tara is very responsive and helpful, ensuring we got exactly what sort of evening we were after - I’m pretty sure Dixie can do it all!

Meet the Act
Well hello my darlings, I'm Dixie Normous, and yes that is true! I absolutely love my job entertaining brides-to-be to a surprise birthday celebration and everything in between. I started drag just over 7 years ago in my home town - Sunny Sunny Bournemouth! Since the moment I shook my first wig which was purchased from Ebay and put on my dress from Primark I knew this was for the making. Over the years as well as developing my performance, I have now upgraded the look which once looked like I was a camouflage model for the Army!
