Planet Drag explores the drag of 15 countries across the globe, from Germany to the Philippines, and Italy to the US and UK.
Travel to Planet Drag and explore the styles, influences, artists and events that have made the art of drag so outrageously popular in 15 countries around the world.
Exquisitely styled by top drag queens and with a foreword by Canada’s Drag Race judge Brooke Lynn Hytes, this is the ultimate guide to drag – a glittering, feathered foray into the past and present of this much-loved art form.
Gloriously embellished with historical photos – many never seen before – along with stylish contemporary shots of some of the world's biggest drag stars, this is a deep dive into drag’s meteoric rise to the mainstream.
The carnival court of drag has exploded and it now holds a fierce place in popular culture. And while Rupaul's Drag Race does highlight some nuanced differences between national drag styles, there’s a lot more to the story that you don’t know…
In this extravagant exploration across Planet Drag, we’ll stop at:
The UK, where pantomime culture gave us a wicked comic attitude that still prevails
Germany, home to ‘tuntens’ who don’t see themselves as impersonating women at all
The USA, a unique melting pot of drag culture
France, where Joan of Arc is considered by some to be the very first drag king
Australia, the country that birthed blockbuster film Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, which saw drag reach a whole new audience.
Plus 10 more countries that have altered and expanded the art of drag in ways you might not expect.
This is drag unashamed, unneutered, unapologetic... and world-conquering. A must-have for any drag fan.
With contributions from Zephyr Aspen, Kat Joplin, Alex Nolos, Javier Izquierdo, Jeffrey Rowe, Tsarlotte Lucifer, Juliana R. Santos, Courtney Norton, Presley Stewart and Viktor Skancke.
