Exploration of drag as a performance practice that aestheticizes gender for purposes such as entertainment, socio-political critique, and labor. Creation of individual drag personas and performances considering intersections of gender, nationality, race, class, and disability to understand the implications of putting gender on the body, on stage, and in everyday life. Workshops, short performances and critiques to curate performance resources and cultivate performance techniques, culminating in a public performance.
