Pichi Keane

Pichi recently made waves at the National Arts Festival with her first solo drag cabaret 'Ripe 'n Ready', taking home a sexy Silver Standard Bank Ovation Award and selling out shows along the Garden Route. Pichi first started performing in drag while living in Hong Kong and their most notable performances while abroad were with the official Hong Kong Pride Party 2021, Drag Discovery Channel and FEM - all hosted at the premier queer venue in Hong Kong, the Lambda Lounge. She also collaborated with her drag sister Trash Queen Doris to co-produce Get Trash’d - a variety drinking game show - as well as working with one of Hong Kong’s funniest femmes, Francesca Ayala, to present Big Bad Bingo Bonanza at The Aftermath, Sex Ed: An Uncensored Trivia and more. A trained vocalist with experience in musical theatre, jazz, pop and rock, she also established her band 'Pichi Keane & the Swing Machine' - a project featuring some of Hong Kong’s most sought-after musicians. Originally from South Africa, Pichi is keen to savour the sunshine and sample the fresh produce of her home country once again!
