Berlin gender performance legend Bridge Markland talks about her life – anecdotes about, for example, how experiments in disguising in Berlin and New York in the early 1990s led to the creation of Bridge’s most widely known gender performance, “Die schönste Frau der Welt” (The World’s Most Beautiful Woman).

The Berlin performer is a virtuoso of role play and transformation. An artist who effortlessly crosses boundaries between dance, theatre, performance, cabaret and puppet theatre. Her speciality are gender performances, in which the audience experiences her transformation from female to male, or vice versa. Markland is a pioneer of drag and gender performance in Germany, and has organised drag king events, tours and festivals since 1994.
