SUMMARY:

Propelled by theoretical and methodological reflections of the Network of Meanings (Rede de Significações) and Gender Theories, this work aimed to scrutinize the ontogeny of the drag queen. The method was based on individual semi-structured interviews that happened in 3 different moments: before, during and after getting into drag. The first meeting took place with each participant out of drag, and focused on the origin and history of the drag queen. The second meeting happened during and after getting into drag, seeking a deeper understanding of the persona's body construction. The interviews were recorded, transcribed and analyzed under the microgenetic prism. Three aspects guided the construction of the analysis: the clues of the construction of the drag queen, the influence of temporalities and the macrosocial aspects. The results indicate the singularity of each drag queen, intertwined by their temporalities and their relationship with the environment. In their developmental processes, they negotiate relationships, practices, languages and spaces, making their trajectory unique. There are also transversal components, mainly associated with elements belonging to their socio-historical matrix, that refer to the disruption of the sex-gender system, and the creation of new ways of being and doing drag. It was also observed the highly interactive dimension of the drag, since the first few times getting into drag, in the process of choosing the name, and in its ontogenetic path. As well as the development of the person, the drag queen's trajectory is multilinear, marked by predictability and unpredictability, continuity and discontinuity. The makeup metaphorizes and concretizes these non-linear movements, as a prominent place in the process of getting into drag. In addition, we observed processes of approximation and distancing in the interaction between person and persona. Based on the analysis, the drag queen is understood as the construction of a new place in the world, and the relationship between person and persona is characterized as a double path of transformation. Finally, we point out the drag as a happening process, in constant state of becoming.
