CGiii Comment

How would it be, for a woman, living a day as a man?
The background of a drag show is the opportunity to explore inside the most intimate aspects of Kinging.
From stories and experiences of a group of Drag Kings, daily recorded, it emerges a construction practice identity staging gender stereotypes and bares the predominance of men in our society.
The author, with participant but not intrusive gaze, show fascination and complexity of a little unknown universe, where the surplus becomes spectacle, and the transformation is liberating narrative of the self.


Come sarebbe, per una donna, vivere una giornata da uomo?
I retroscena di uno spettacolo Drag sono l’occasione per esplorare dall’interno gli aspetti più intimi del Kinging. Da racconti ed esperienze di un gruppo di Drag Kings, colte anche nel quotidiano, emerge una pratica di costruzione identitaria che inscena gli stereotipi sessuali e denuda il predominio del maschile nella nostra società.
L’autrice, con sguardo partecipe ma non invadente, mostra fascinazione e complessità di un cosmo ancora poco noto, dove l’eccedenza si fa spettacolo, e la trasformazione è liberatoria narrazione del sé.
