Drag Performers
Drag performers are artists who entertain by dressing in exaggerated clothing and makeup, often representing a gender different from their own. This art form combines elements of theater, fashion, and performance, allowing individuals to express creativity and challenge societal norms regarding gender and identity. Drag shows can include lip-syncing, dancing, and comedy, making them vibrant and engaging experiences for audiences.
The history of drag performance can be traced back to various cultures, with roots in theater and LGBTQ+ communities. Notable events, such as the Stonewall Riots, have played a significant role in the visibility and acceptance of drag performers, contributing to the broader LGBTQ+ rights movement.
