We are an avant-garde performance-art troupe of 60+ members located in and around Washington, DC. We are a diverse group in race, gender, sexual identity, age, and background. Our performances generally include song, pantomime, dancing, theatrical skits (comedy, drama, politics, etc.), burlesque, musical performance, and occasionally spoken word. One of our unique features often involves performing without the presence of gender boundaries. Due to our usual venue locations in the DC area, the majority of us identify in some part of the queer community, but we encourage and regularly include heterosexual performers.
In March of 2000 we began as a drag king troupe. However, this term is now loosely held by us as we have since incorporated several other forms of performers that otherwise had limited venues available. We are all DC Kings, and we are all part of the longest-running monthly drag king show in the World!
