The history and world of Drag
About the webinar:
Join us in this webinar where we’ll discuss the world and history of drag, the misconceptions about drag, gender and share advice for people interested in exploring their gender presentation in a fun way.
Panelists:
- Jordy Deelight
- Dorian T. Fisk
Dorian is a multi-award winning genderqueer drag artist featured in The Guardian as one of the UK’s most inspirational drag kings and is the creator and driving force behind Shut Up & King – a Glasgow-based platform for Scottish drag kings everywhere, and produces the queer AF show, The Kings Peach – Glasgow’s juiciest night of drag kings and burlesque.
Jordy is an award winning non-binary artist from Edinburgh, Scotland, who works across the UK creating work for theatre, film and music. Their work looks at identity and persona, exploring themes of disability, gender and mental health in autobiographical and auto theory-based work. Jordy’s aim in their work is to bring conversations about the deep-rooted psychology of humans and how they think, feel and act.
