Lessons in Drag With LaWhore Vagistan
Friday, April 26, 2024 @ 7:00 pm
The Tufts Department of Theatre, Dance, and Performance Studies presents Lessons in Drag With LaWhore Vagistan. Dr. Vagistan, your favorite South Asian drag auntie, brings the nightclub to the classroom (and vice versa) to explain how critical social theory matters in queer nightlife. Touching on themes that include globalization, feminist theory, and islamophobia, she stages the nightclub as a site of politics and pleasure. Part lecture, part lipsync, part audience participation, the show demonstrates how much drag teaches us, even requires us, to be in relation with the rest of the world. With opening act Boudoir de Beauvoir. The event is free and open to the public; tickets may be reserved online through Tufts Ticketing.
