Interactive workshop: My reality is (a) Drag! with Alice Moe
Workshop on the performance of identities and self-expression
Wednesday, December 3, 2021, 20:00 - 22:00, Online, Online (via ZOOM)
Women who slip into male identities in order to lead an economic and secure life have been known throughout history for centuries. Drag kinging opens up the possibility of recognizing gender differences through women's experiences of discrimination, reflecting on them critically and working on them by making them visible. After all, appropriating stereotypical male role models also means maintaining privileges without having to do anything about it.
Alice Moe is a genderfluid queer drag artist. Also active as a drag king, he*she engages in activism around the diverse topic of self-expression. In addition to the practice-oriented part, Alice Moe will also provide theoretical input on drag kinging & shows, the historical background and the context to art.
