Exciting news! We are SO EXCITED to announce our Special Guest Performer for Ragnarok: A Night Carnival Of Fate - Winter Sinclair as the ill-fated and beautiful weaver Arachne!

Winter joins us all the way from San Diego, California as the Spider Queen and fateful tragic heroine to usher us into the HIVE as night approaches.

Big thanks to for the generous grant which gives us the opportunity to bring to our Night Carnival stage for the first time!

Winter Sinclair is the Frosty Queen of Your Q***r Dreams; an internationally touring tease wrapped in rhinestones and chilled to sinful perfection. Based in San Diego, Winter is a high femme shapeshifter who freezes together the timeless allure of classic burlesque, the daring artistry of pole dance, and the bold theatricality of drag; crafting a dazzling blizzard of femme power and performance magic.

Since her debut in 2018, Winter has become a four-time pinup cover model and the frosty force behind CatHaus R***e, San Diego’s only burlesque and pole dance show, as well as Barely Scripted, a variety spectacle where the chaos is snow joke. She’s also the co-creator of the upcoming Stay Classy San Diego Burlesque Festival, welcoming world-class artists from around the world in a snowstorm of rhinestones, feathers, and unapologetic self-expression.

A proud q***r artist living with invisible disabilities, Winter uses her platform to advocate for inclusion in the performing arts, bringing warmth to every chilly corner she touches.

Prolonged exposure to Winter may cause rapid heartbeat, mild overheating, and the sudden urge to surrender your singles to the frost queen herself.
Because when Winter takes the stage, frostbite is just the foreplay. Brace yourself, Winter is coming.
