Julio - Making Women Kings Again
Berlin Dragking Julio transcends the indigestible elements of his biography in a melodic, erratic, and hilarious journey. It’s a wild, erratic ride that keeps you laughing and thinking.
About Julio - Making Women Kings Again
"There’s No Greater Man Than Julio and His Fake Dick"
Why This Show?
If gender is a blur, Julio is in full focus. "Julio: Making Women Kings Again" smashes stereotypes with humor and heart. Julio, the drag king creation of Berlin’s Julia Kratz, rips apart outdated ideas of masculinity and femininity, proving that the strongest man might just be the one with a latex dick and the voice of a broken soprano tenor.
How Does She Do It?
Julio storms the stage with a blend of existential intensity and laugh-out-loud moments. He belts out “Je ne regrette rien,” flops onto the piano, and switches from cowboy boot to high heel. From porn store visits with mom and her death wish to stripping away societal norms, it’s a wild, erratic ride that keeps you laughing and thinking.
What Are the Reactions?
Women cheer, queer audiences connect, and even straight men are left questioning—and loving it. Julio’s silicone anatomy? Hand-painted chest hair? Questionable fashion choices? Reactions range from giggles to wide-eyed stares. The show’s a hit, sparking conversations that linger long after the curtain falls.
Who Is Julia Kratz?
A seasoned Berlin performer, Julia Kratz turns societal norms on their head. "Julio: Making Women Kings Again" is her grungy, provocative take on gender roles.
