The Routledge Companion to Drag offers a comprehensive academic exploration of drag as a global, historical, and cultural phenomenon. This volume examines drag beyond its popularised media image, tracing its diverse practices across time and geography. Chapters address key themes such as the history, herstory, and theirstory of drag, its representation on television, activism, and performance traditions from the Victorian and Elizabethan stage to contemporary contexts. With contributions that extend beyond the global North, the book foregrounds intersectional perspectives on race, ethnicity, the body, class, and sexuality, while engaging with issues such as the AIDS pandemic and cultural politics. Rejecting uniformity, it embraces the complexity and multiplicity of drag cultures worldwide. The Routledge Companion to Drag is ideal for undergraduates, postgraduates, and researchers in Gender Studies, Anthropology, Sociology, and Politics, and provides an essential resource for those seeking critical insights into modern and historical drag practices and its discourse.
