I LOVE TO BE KING

THE ESSENCE

In 2017, I entered the vibrant world of Drag Kinging and since then it has become an essential part of my life. For me, being a Drag King feels natural and deeply fulfilling - both on and off the stage.

​​

WHAT DRIVES ME

Drag Kinging is a bold statement. It is a medium for challenging visual habits, playfully deconstructing stereotypes, and making an active contribution to community building. In every new character, I experience the transformative power of metamorphosis—liberated, empowered, and each time a bit more authentically myself.

​​

MY KINGS: A KALEIDOSCOPE OF IDENTITIES

My characters are as diverse as masculinity* itself. Inspired by personal experiences and social observations, I create spaces for new narratives:
 

  • Mr. Maniac & Mr. B: Charismatic, confident, captivating.

  • The onion-esque Oniosch: An exploration of heritage and wit.

  • Gülent Gaylan: A Mannheim original with a heart of metal.

  • and many more...

Whether it’s cabaret performance, classical elegance, or humorous deconstruction—I love challenging norms. Which King is hidden inside you?

ROYAL COLLABORATIONS – HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER

I offer tailor-made interactions for stage, business, and media:

  • Performances: From galas to club contexts.

  • Performance Coaching: Discover and refine your stage presence.

  • Drag King for Film & Photo: Character development and modeling.

  • Speaker & Hosting: Expert, charming, and on point.

MALED IT! – KINGS' FEEDBACK

UdK Focus: Gender, Performance & [Femininities]

A workshop report on the deconstruction of [femininities] and the collective power of transformation in the performing arts.

Patriarchy is a choreography. So we rewrite the steps.

For International Women's Day 2026 at Alte Münze Berlin, Marilyn Nova White reflects on the physical staging of power: How can we rewrite the steps of patriarchy through Drag Kinging? A contribution on resistance and transformation.

"Wholesome: A loving safe space for intensive development."

Best workshop ever! The whole group was so lovely, and a safe space was created, thanks to Marilyn. Everyone felt seen and heard; we could easily follow Marilyn and try out everything they showed us. The days were well-structured, covering both theory and practice on Drag Kings. We were regularly checked in on, as it was a very intensive workshop.
I highly recommend it and am proud to say I'm a new son! 🧚🏼‍♀️
I learned so much, made so many great new connections. Simply wholesome!

DRAG KING

WHY MALED IT! ?

Authentic Drag King workshops are rare. Since 2018, as one of the few Drag Kings in Germany, I have been sharing my expertise worldwide. MALED IT! is my signature method for passing on the techniques that changed my perspective on the world.

I combine my experience as a performer and actor with a solid foundation in theater pedagogy. This is about more than just makeup—it’s about empowerment, political visibility, and a radical joy of play.

THE EXPERIENCE: TRANSFORMATION ON EVERY LEVEL

We create a space where we make clichés tangible—both theoretically and practically—only to break them with relish.

  • Theory & Reflection: Dialogue on gender, power, and norms.

  • Craft: Beard techniques, penis-building (packing), binding tips, and makeup.

  • Performance: Bodywork, vocal training, and acting methods.

You will experience how your posture and attitude shift as you shed social norms. A unique group experience that combines personal development with collective empowerment.

 

WHO IS THIS SPACE FOR?

My pedagogical framework is as flexible as the subject itself. I support:

  • Individuals & Groups: Curious people of all genders and the queer community.

  • Professionals: Actors and performers.

  • Business: Companies and executives (Focus: Role awareness and presence).

 

YOUR OPPORTUNITIES WITH MALED IT! :

  • Workshop for Newbies: The perfect entry into the world of Kings.

  • Workshop for Kings: Deepening your practice and finding new perspectives.

  • Act Coaching: Developing your own unique performance.

  • Lectures & Panels: Insights into my personal journey and the politics of Drag.

  • Styling Service: Professional transformation for you or your team.
