Performance, Staging and Parodies: queer knowledges and the ways of drag use in Márcia Pantera’s narratives

Abstract

ABSTRACT Performance, Staging and Parodies: queer knowledges and the ways of drag use in Márcia Pantera’s narratives – The article aims to discuss Márcia Pantera’s narratives, exploring the performance, staging and parodies of gender present in the use of queer knowledge and drag. Using narrative encounters as a methodological ethos, it embraces poetics as a creative possibility for weaving performative research. In its analytical action, the text enunciates the effects of the poetic encounter with Márcia Pantera, who, in narrating her performative experiments, engendered the making of powerful mobilizations and fabulations for thinking about the body surface and its anarchic-performative action. The article concludes its poetic journey by glimpsing the creative action of Márcia Pantera’s performance in the constitution of dissident modes of proliferation of educational affectations.
