Genderation: IDKE9
October 18-21, 2007

ABOUT THE IDKE 9 “Genderation” THEME

Exploring the past, present and future of the many generations of the drag community.

We proposed a focus on social construct divisions between different generations. Analyzing cultural history; how do gender, race, class, disability, and geography also play a role in constructing queer generations both locally and internationally.


ABOUT THE IDKE 9 TEAM

IDKE9 was brought to you by the Bent Umbrella Queer Performing Arts Society, a non-profit society created to bring together Vancouver’s Drag King troupes. Our team is committed to coming together for the organization of IDKE9 as a united group. IDKE gives us an opportunity to foster greater co-operation, to strengthen our community, and to network not only with Vancouver performance groups but the broader IDKE community. And (of course) to bring Vancouver and the International King community the best conference possible!
