Wedge Li Divõn is the first *out* libyan drag queen. Keil comes from a society where men don't and shouldn't express emotions, so she chose writing & singing to express herself. At the age of 15 she became best friends with paper & pen and started her songwriting journey. She was always interested in playing with her gender. The first time she put on make-up was to cover a bruise on her eye that her father had given her, using her mother's concealer. Keil Li Divõn is the super-sized-doll, that came from the moon to take over planet earth and make everyone as gay as possible.

Julie Dancer “I'm Julie Dancer, 31 years old from Malaysia, now I'm living in Berlin with refugee status. I'm a professional in Indian classical dance and Bollywood dance. I have 15 years experience as a stage performance artist. In Berlin I got a chance to perform in the Super Talent 2019 TV show but unfortunately I got rejected because of my gender and canceled my show. But I am lucky and got a chance to perform in Berlin at so many clubs and parties organized by queer artists collective QueerBerg. My achievement is to become famous Bollywood dancer, build a community in Berlin, inspire them and start my own Safe Bollywood dance studio for other queer & trance people."

Maria Asskaf (German/Syrian) is a well known and appreciated bellydance artist and teacher from the north of Germany, based in Berlin. She was the former dancer and choreographer in the famous Madi Varieté theater for many years, performed nationally/internationally in all kind of clubs, shows and TV. She also organized her own dance parties "Wahda&Nos" with a live band as well. Maria started to practice this special dance at age 9 - and is still addicted. Combining smooth, earthy movements with her very own feminine and elegant stage presence she loves to share her knowledge in classes and workshops to create an inner balance, better understanding and stronger body.

Queerberg is a collective founded by House Of Royals. We are from so far different countries and cultures. It started with Refugee performers to give them space to express their Art, since it was hard for them because of variety of reasons such as language difficulties, racism etc... As a group of refugees, we also have a deep mental connection and understanding with each other, we bond over our trauma, since we have similar background. Although most of us lost their families, but we still have each other to support. And thanks to many places that support us and validate us, we've grown and come so far.
