Garde der Garstigen

In the artist's words:

The Garde der Garstigen is a Cologne-based drag collective. 
We regularly put on drag shows at various theaters, clubs, and other venues in Cologne; we’re part of German drag culture and travel all over the country for shows and queer events. 
We are drag queens—political figures who use provocation, pushing boundaries, gender-bending, and activist action to draw attention to queer-feminist and other social issues. 
We thrive on applause and a lively audience. We are all the show!

We stand for a queer, open, and diverse cultural scene. 
Everyone who is interested in and inspired by queer performing arts is welcome here. 
Everyone else—STAY OUT!
