The Drag
Drag is as political and interdisciplinary as it gets. Through it, I merge and integrate all my passions: art, writing, film, performance, queerness, gender-bending, music, dance, fashion, acting, crafting and activism.
Drag personas
Lilith the Quing
My main drag persona — a creature of chaos with a touch of drama, camp, provocative personality and a pinch of fairy tale and magic.
Lilith the Quing is the sweetest demon you'll ever meet. They ran away from the garden of Eden to explore what they weren't allowed to be, and now they come to extinguish the patriarchy, celebrate queerness, and make you eat that forbidden fruit of knowledge — make you question what is good and evil, and all other binaries.
Ken Marroska
A Brazilian sensation. A classic carioca fuckboi who loves to dance with malemolência and to seduce everyone with his malice and easygoing style of someone who grew up near the beach.
Miss Verständniss
She detransitioned because being a trans guy is too hard, and she just wants to be a girl, have fun, and take advantage of her white girl privileges.
Kai Piranha
Beloved by gringxs. As sexy as the Brazilian drink. Let them fall on your lap and get drunk on Kai Piranha. Best served with ice, because they will make you sweat 💦
The (Sex) Slave
More coming soon.
Master of Ceremony
There's a lot of responsibility on hosting a room. Having a microphone means having a platform, and I try to use mine not only to cheer up and warm the crowd for the shows, but also to remind people of their own responsibilities in making the event safer and creating a better environment — which everyone can do by being kind and taking care of each other.
I started hosting shows in 2021 during the lockdown, on an online livestream with the Venus Boys. My first live show with an audience was the Venus Boys Fluidity Show, which was a project uniting my two collectives at the time, my passion for drag, raving and queer celebration. It was truly a dream come true, because it was also free entry, as it was funded by Draussenstadt.
Since then I've hosted shows like:
- Showstoppers and König (together with Buba Sababa) at Tipsy Bear
- POPPERS (together with Bleach) and Lesbos at Monster Ronson's Ichiban Karaoke
- Gender Euphoria (produced together with Kaputino), Visible Queers, and Border Ctrl (together with Angelo Dynamo), all at SilverFuture
- Fluidity at Re:mise, plus a collab with GEGEN at RSO Berlin
- No Homo, a drag king show I started producing at Pepsi Boston Bar and Tipsy Bear
- BRag Kultur at SilverFuture and Tipsy Bear
- Hosted a part of the Internationalist Queer Pride Berlin 2023 together with La Papi Patacón
- Non-drag events too, like the PATCHWERK Launch Party at 90mil
My passion for hosting came from an early age. I used to participate with my parents in events regarding environmental issues of the Serra da Mantiqueira (the region where I grew up in Brazil), and since I was a child I've been taking the microphone and using my voice to share, educate, inspire and learn together with different groups of people.
Collectives & groups
BRag Kultur
BRag Kultur is a collective formed by artists of the Brazilian diaspora in Berlin.
Our work is a research through drag, languages, and music. It's intrinsically political, but also explicitly so, as it creates political landscapes with parties like Partido Puta Komunista (PPK) and Partido Amazônia Autofrei, as well as the Ministério do Namoro (Ministry of Dating and Love). Proposing new political ecosystems to a world we would like to live and thrive, leaving behind the surviving and grinding.
Watching a BRag Kultur show makes the audience wonder: is it a show? a novela? a band? a political party? a movement? a ministry?… It is all of that wrapped in chaos and euphoria, glitter, camp (or brega), rebolation, bate cabelo (hairography), funk and Brazilian popular music as well as original songs, parodies and queering and dragging all the straight edges BRag can find.
It's a bragging and brega celebration of our culture, collaging with international references and translating to the gringues (foreigners), captivating both Brazilian and transnational audiences through music, memes, folklore and deep references only those who know, will know — and appreciate it even more so.
BRag Kultur é um coletivo formados por artistas drags brasileires que migraram pra Berlin.
Nosso trabalho é uma pesquisa pelo drag, linguagens y música. É intrinsicamente mas também explicitamente político. Estamos criando um BRagverso político como o Partido Puta Komunista (PPK) y o Partido Amazonia Autofrei, além do Ministério do Namoro. A ideia é propor um novo ecossistema político pensando no mundo que queremos viver y florescer, deixando pra trás os perrengues y corres pra sobreviver.
Assistir um show do BRag Kultur faz o público se perguntar: é um show? uma novela? uma banda? um partido? um movimento? um ministério? Ah, meu bem, é um delicioso caos com tudo isso y muito mais, só que entupido de euforia, glitter, brega, rebolation, bate cabelo, funk y mpb, além de músicas originais, paródias, subvertendo, travestindo y contaminando tudo que a gente vê na frente! Não vai sobrar uma hetera pra contar história!
É uma celebração e bragging (se gabar) da nossa cultura, sendo mesclada com referências internacionais y traduzindo tudo pra galera gringa, ao mesmo tempo que cativamos nosses conterrânes com música, memes, folclore y aquelas refs que só quem sabe, sabe - y vai apreciar ainda mais as piadas. As entendidas do rolê vão saber do que a gente tá falando!
