סיכום:In recent years drag performance has moved from the fringes to emerge as a mainstream phenomenon, showcased on TV shows in the US and the UK. Volume 1 offers a diverse range of critical engagements by drag performers, makers, scholars and writers reflecting on work from the UK, USA, Israel, Germany and Australia. Moving beyond discussions of gender theory, the essays consider contemporary drag performance practices, connecting them to the histories, communities and politics that produced them. Volume 2 examines how drag performance is a political, socio-cultural practice with a widespread lineage throughout the history of performance. It maps the multi-threaded contexts of contemporary practices while rooting them in their fabulous historical past and memory.
