Popis: In 2007, the Area of Gender’s Technology and the Area of Communication of Centro Cultural Rojas (UBA) published El Teje. The first magazine of transvestites in Latin America. From it, the institution promoted the inclusion of transgender persons and questioned the dualism typical of the heterosexual contract. Many presentations of the magazine were accompanied by performances. We have studied the construction of the transvestite identity embodied by poet and performer Naty Menstrual in the first presentation of El Teje. For this, we apply postdramatic theatrical theory to the field of queer studies.
