In this episode, Ola travels to Belgrade, the capital of Serbia — to meet Dekadenca, a drag performer whose work blurs the lines between art, politics, and identity.
With a theatrical background and love of all things cabaret, Decadenza is a larger-than-life character who performs acting, painting and singing.
Today, you’ll hear about how Dekadenca was created, how Yugoslav heritage shapes today’s queer art scene in Belgrade, and how political, or not, drag can be.
This podcast is created by the European Association for the Education of Adults.
A special thanks to Decadenza for sharing your time with us!
