Drag King Legend Mo B. Dick

Drag King Legend Mo B. Dick

Cited as one of the founding fathers of the modern day drag king movement, drag king legend Mo B. Dick pioneered many firsts. In 1996, Mo created Club Casanova in New York City, which was the world's first weekly drag king party. In 1998 Mo took Club Casanova on the road for the first ever drag king tour of U.S. and Canada.

Mo caught the attention of famed cult filmmaker, John Waters, who personally cast Mo in his film Pecker. And Mo was featured in Troma Entertainment's film Terror Firmer, History Lessons by Barbara Hammer; documentaries: Venus Boyz; Y2K: Drag Kings on MTV; God Shave the Queen on HBO; television shows: Sex & the City, Super Fun Night and multiple theater productions.

In 2018, Mo teamed up with fellow drag king Ken Vegas of Washington, D.C. to co-create the website DragKingHistory.com. In 2020, they granted permission for the website to be archived in The U.S. Library of Congress. Also in 2020, Mo hosted and co-produced Kings of the World, a monthly global cyber drag king variety show, that featured drag kings from 6 of the 7 continents which had never been done before.

Mo B. Dick has been the subject of books, documentaries, articles, periodicals, podcasts and more on drag kings proving he is a force to reckon with.
