GENRE is an interdisciplinary drag performance series blurring the boundaries between queer nightlife, installation art, and experimental theater performance. This event takes place quarterly at The Stud. Conceived and curated by Robert Andrew Perez aka Phoebe Cakes and Camryn Nichols aka Yayah, GENRE is a response to the ongoing criminalization of queer expression and the erosion of LGBTQ+ gathering spaces. Our inaugural installment, themed Decades on Decades, explored how different eras interpret, imitate, or misremember each other—a meditation on time, legacy, and queer cultural memory
