Do you ever have any curiosity about gods, like do they really exist somewhere, what do they look like, or how they actually help people? Comedian Mike Delamont will present his answer this Christmas on Vancouver Island! In Delamont upcoming show, God Is A Scottish Drag Queen, he brings this playful, reimagined version of God to life with humor, warmth, and a touch of irreverence.

He has performed this show in the past few years, but this year is different; he’s adding a festive twist, offering Christmas Specials in Courtenay, Nanaimo, and Duncan. The show mixes comedy, history, and holiday spirit, covering everything from the traditions of Yule, Saturnalia, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa, to the fun and familiar parts of Christmas like eggnog and mistletoe. It looks like he is trying to create a Christmas show that everyone can enjoy. He describes the special as a “potluck of holidays,” where different traditions come together to create something unique.

Each year, Delamont works with his wife to create fresh material, ensuring the show feels timely and fun. He’s careful to make sure the comedy lands, always reworking jokes that don’t hit the mark. The idea is that God is the comedian, not the punchline. Delamont takes a lighthearted, human approach to things for example like wondering what God might say when they stub their toe.

The show’s sweet, nostalgic vibe offers a refreshing break from typical holiday fare. “Every year, people are bombarded with the same Nutcracker performances and Christmas carols,” says Delamont. “This show is something a little different, but still Christmas, and audiences really connect with that. If you want something new for this year’s Christmas, Delamont’s show will make sure you have fun like you were a child!”

Delamont’s Christmas special stands out from the others because it’s not strictly biblical, though it still touches on various holiday traditions. The show has a warm, nostalgic feeling that audiences love, especially since they’re used to seeing the same Nutcracker performances and Christmas carols every year. His show offers something new while still being festive, which really appeals to people. Delamont enjoys performing it, and it’s clear that his fun and heartwarming show connects with his audience in a special way.
