"I Am the Man!" Performing gender and other incongruities.

J Homosex. 2002;43(3-4):39-47

Authors: Sennett J, Bay-Cheng S

The following essay details the genesis of the performance "I Am the Man" for the First International Drag King Extravaganza. In it the authors explain both their autobiographical performances and the relationship between their drag performances and transgender theory by linking Shakespeare to queer theory and by overlapping their personal narratives.

PMID: 12769272 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]
