After the 2022 tour Divas with something extrathe exuberant drag queen duo KARMA B returns to stages all over Italy with the new show MalesAnd... what men don't say, a unique and sizzling live show on the theme of masculinity between music, stand-up comedy and head-turning looks.
"If in the previous show we sang and narrated the Divas, now we investigate the sensitivity maleDoes it exist or is it just a myth? The Karma B's, great experts in maleology, the totally inexact science that studies and classifies males, will take you through a show that is a lectio magistralis, that is a live concert, that is a stand up comedy and who knows what else. Through music, songs, unreleased lyrics, well-known authors and famous songwriters, we will see if and how it has evolved the figure of the Italian male from 'masculus who never has to ask' a few decades ago at the 'virtually liquid masculus' of today.
In short, everything you've always wanted to know about males and never dared to ask, because they wouldn't answer you anyway... we'll tell you!"

Sicilian-born but world citizens, travelling far and wide with their highly sought-after looks, the Karma B are a duo of twin drag queens, protagonists of the Italian drag scene and beyond. They like to define themselves as mythological creatures, half human and half Raffaella Carrà. They have been artistically united since the late 1990s and are recognised for their sought-after performances in clubs, TV, theatre, comedy films and music videos. With their art, the Karma B are also spokesmen for the Italian LGBTQIA+ community worldwide. In the 2021/2022 season they are among the leading faces of Propaganda Livewhere they do not forget to make their voices heard as rainbow community activists. From February until May 2022 they joined Nunzia De Girolamo as a regular presence on the programme Hi Male. June 2022 saw the release of their new single entitled Divas with something extrawhich also gave their show its name. The performance art of drag queens with the Karma B also becomes informative, thanks to important socio-cultural meetings attended in the recent period: from theInternational Journalism Festival of Perugia, at Wired Festival of Florence, invited to panels and thematic meetings on the subject of language changes and new experiments in inclusive language, such as the gradual inclusion of schwa within a more modern and welcoming language for allə. Substantial participations that have consolidated their capacity for 'media activism'.
