Taylor Wanstall and his drag persona Tatianna Lee. Wanstall sees his character Tatianna as an escape, a catharsis from his daily life as an English teacher. “In the beginning, Tatianna was just Taylor in a dress,” he remembers. But after a few years, he says, “It is almost like having two different personalities. Taylor is just who I am in my day-to-day life: Very relaxed quiet and happy . . . Working in the elementary school, I can’t swear or anything. When I am Tatiana, it kind of gives me an excuse to say what I want as a character and then change back into who I was.” (Natalie Anna Jacobsen photos) #Japan #drag #dragqueens
