KINGs Village, a premier event of its kind in Italy, is an
International Drag King Festival, organized and promoted
by Kings of Rome and Di’ Gay Project, and hosted by the
annual summer lgbt happening Gay Village 2008.
KINGs Village aims to promote and spread the Drag King
subculture, a phenomenon which is finally conquering the
Italian gender experimentation scene.
Drag King Festival will primarily gather Drag Kings (single
performers or groups) from different European countries,
who will be given the opportunity to perform and express
their artistic aspirations through the contest.
In particular, this Festival is addressing the artists from
those
countries that have recently joined the EU, but in
which
the
life of LGBTQ* individuals is still largely
compromised
by
the
cultural, social, and legal rights.
* LGBTQ (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Trans Queer)
