Perfromative reading for children (ages 3-10), interested grown-ups can join as well.

Drag Queen Stories deals with gender constructs and the boundaries between feminine and masculine norms in a playful and humorous way. Lady ­Nutjob invites children, youths, and adults to eavesdrop on their stories during ­WIENWOCHE. Together they will dive into a world of narratives, veering away from stereotypes and ­clichés about identity, friendship, family images and love from a ­queer*feminist perspective. The project will create a space for adolescents to reduce their fears of confrontation, while simultaneously providing an opportunity for communicating about queerness and gender issues in a child-friendly way.

Drag Queen Stories is a project by riot grrrl arts and buuuch.ch, the community blog project for progressive, inclusive and diverse children’s books.
