Margaret Dragu (born 1953) is a Canadian dancer, writer, performance artist and feminist.

Career[edit]

Dragu was born in Regina, Saskatchewan, in 1953.[1][2] Growing up she was influenced by traditional Romanian folk dancing.[3] As an adult she spent time in New York, Calgary, Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.[4][5] She began her dance career in Calgary in 1969, studying under Yone Kvietys Young, who was an instructor of movement using elements of Dada.[5] From Calgary, Dragu moved to New York in 1971, where she began working with Alwin Nikolais, Murray Louis, and the Laura Foreman dance company, as well as members of the Judson Church.[5] Her work with movement evolved to include elements of "burlesque, tap dancing, flamenco, and theatre."[5] In 1973 Dragu moved to Montreal where she began a lengthy career as a striptease artist.

In 1975 Dragu moved to Toronto and became affiliated with artist-run collectives including A Space and 15 Dance Lab. She taught classes in aerobics and strip at the A Space gallery. In Toronto Dragu attempted to organize around strippers' rights with the help of the Canadian Labour Congress and the Association of Canadian Radio and Television Artists. The short lived strippers' union was called the Canadian Association for Burlesque Entertainers.

Dragu starred in the 1981 film Surfacing, directed by Claude Jutra and based on Margaret Atwood's 1972 novel of the same name.

In 1988 Dragu co-wrote Revelations: Essays on Striptease and Sexuality with A. S. A. Harrison, a collection of essays on the topics of striptease and sexual entertainment.

Dragu has stated that she has a "multi-personnae" disorder, becoming Lady Justice, Verb Woman, Art Cinderella, and Nuestra Señora del Pan.[5] For a performance at Edmonton's Vision of Hope monument, with a sword, salt, wine and scales that viewers associate with Lady Justice, she honored the women killed in the massacre at Montreal's École Polytechnique.[5]

She has collaborated with artists such as Tom Dean, Colin Campbell, members of General Idea, Rodney Werden and Kate Craig, and members of the communities in which she performs.[4]

In 2012, Dragu won the Governor General's Award in Visual and Media Arts.[4]

Dragu resides in East Vancouver. She created a radio show, Momz Radio which focused on interviewing mothers about their experiences with motherhood. Through this research, she wrote a book by the same name, Momz Radio: Mothers Talkback. Dragu has created video art for YouTube, and writes two blogs, which she updates as Lady Justice and Verb Woman respectively.
