Description
‘Drag Dings’ - a four episode show by Severus Heyn, aka Franz Genau, and Dan Chan who will be discussing, dissecting, and debating the Queer experience and culture in the UK, from a comedic drag artist perspective.
How has drag and fluid gender expression been politicised historically and in the world we live in today? Drag can be a vehicle to raise awareness of social issues, we will discuss moments in queer history like Stonewall and Section 28, and how relevance to how trans+ people are portrayed in the media, and the direct action against this demographic faces by the UK government. Drag performers are key people in the queer nightlife community, but how can they become even more integrated in the community outside of this scene?
