Drag performances are shows by artists.e.i who, through make-up and costume, change their appearance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, the House of Serenissima was founded in Venice to offer young (and not so young) people the chance to experience being on stage in drag, creating their own character and making it grow show after show. With the guidance of more experienced performers, a choreographer and two make-up artists, the group carries out part of its activities mainly in the historical city of Venice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting with the best-known example of Drag Queens, i.e. men who assume a female appearance, the House of Serenissima is also made up of Drag Kings (women in male clothing) and drag performers without a precise location. The play of parts, from Shakespeare to Goldoni, pushes into the contemporary and touches the heart of the 'queer' question, of misunderstanding and joking. The activities offered by the House of Serenissima, whether performances or workshops, pass through various themes dear to each person: self-exploration, relationships, the environment, the city, art and politics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All this takes place in an atmosphere of affection and kindness, so that everyone can express themselves in safety and freedom. A bit like home... or as a home should be! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/houseofserenissima.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_1337-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Lola Benvestio.
