MAGENTA RAINBOW

## Who would you be if you could be absolutely anything?

What if, for one afternoon, you could invent a completely different version of yourself? More extravagant. More absurd. More theatrical. More mysterious. More ridiculous. More glamorous. Or simply… different.
That’s where the Drag Lab Party begins. ✨

For two hours, we’ll turn Guria Café into a small collective drag laboratory: a place to meet people, play with identity and creativity, and discover characters we might not even know are hiding inside us.

You don’t need to know how to do makeup. You don’t need any drag experience.
You don’t need to know how to perform.
And you definitely don’t need to arrive with a character already prepared.
We start from scratch.

👑 First, we give them a name.
💋 Then, a personality.
🎭 Little by little come the makeup, clothes, accessories, gestures, poses and strange little mannerisms.

Along the way, there’ll be playful activities to get these newly born creatures interacting with each other.
You might end up as a drag queen, drag king, faded diva, forgotten 80s pop star, intergalactic creature, bankrupt aristocrat, or simply a version of yourself turned up to 300%.
There is no right way to do drag here.

### 🌈 What if I’m shy?

Honey, even better! This is not a competition and not a show. Nobody will be expected to perform, walk a runway or do anything they’re uncomfortable with. You can go big. You can take it slowly. You can watch first and experiment later.

The idea is simply to create a space where we can experiment without already knowing how, participate without having to impress anyone, and meet people without the usual pressure of always having something interesting to say.
Sometimes breaking the ice is considerably easier when the person entering the room is called… Lady Disaster. 👠

### 🧳 Bring your little arsenal

We’ll have some makeup, character materials and accessories available.
But feel free to bring that forgotten wig, an impossible shirt, giant sunglasses, makeup, jewellery, clothes, an inexplicable hat, or anything else that might deserve a second life. And if you’re comfortable doing so, bring something to share or lend to other participants. The stranger our collective dressing room becomes, the better.

### ☕ And there’s food. Because transformation is hungry work.

Your ticket includes a coffee break prepared by Guria Café, with coffee, tea, fruit, a sweet or savoury treat of the day, pão de queijo, mini brownies, focaccia and pâté.

Maybe you’ll come just to spend a different kind of afternoon.
Maybe you’ll discover an unexpected talent for impossible eyebrows.
Maybe you’ll meet someone. Or maybe, somewhere between a wig, a made-up name and an unreasonable amount of eyeliner, you’ll stumble upon a version of yourself you hadn’t met yet.

On 3 October, don’t come to impress anyone.
Come and play. We’ll invent the rest together!💄✨
