Drag monsters already reign the scene & bring the capitalist monsters to the light (looking at you Fracking Queen). To fuel this potential and spread like a sustainably-produced olive oil stain, world's first explicitly climate activist drag house will host a safe learning space for queer people and allies to come together, find their freedom in this art form and provoke the capitalist cistem in drag. Bring everything you'd like to experiment with! (double length time-slot).

The House of Extinction, the Netherlands' and possibly even the world's first explicitly climate activist drag house, is delighted to delve in the theme of Now is the Time for Monsters and organise a workshop performance for this year’s 2.Dh5 festival. Next to our busy activist schedule the not-so-humble House, consisting of a mother, queen Fabric, daddy, king Mannish Pixel (myself) and our lovely first(!) drag baby, queen Kaotica, there's not much to top the opportunity to perform for fellow (queer) activists and/or collectively explore our views on the (history of + contemporary) drag scene and ways to do drag. Drag monsters already reign the scene and bring the capitalist monsters to the light (looking at you Fracking Queen). To fuel this potential and spread like a sustainably-produced olive oil stain, we'd love to host a safe learning space for queer people and allies to come together, find their freedom in this art form and provoke the capitalist cistem in drag. Bring everything you'd like to experiment with!
