The women who participated in Zurich Dada are extraordinary in the history of avant-garde cabaret performance. Not only did they take on the traditionally male roles of the poet/performer and creative artist, but they succeeded in setting forth their own political and artistic agendas alongside their male Dada compatriots. Through their poetry readings and dance performances at the Cabaret Voltaire and Galerie Dada, they deconstructed stereotypical images of the ideal female performer. Presenting themselves on stage in ways that defied audience expectations of feminine appearance and behavior, the women of Zurich Dada created performances marked by disharmony and a sense of the grotesque. In many cases, they disguised and distorted their bodies through oversized, “cubist” masks and costumes. Such subversions of conventional gender expectations in performance were analogous to the attacks on language, representational art and positivistic rational thought in general carried out by Hugo Ball, Richard Huelsenbeck, Tristan Tzara and Jean Arp.

520 $a The female Dadas were not the first women to take on creative roles, <italic> in propria persona</italic>, in the avant-garde cabaret. The German poets Margarete Beutler and Dolorosa are examples of women who presented their own poems and challenged feminine stereotypes in the cabaret prior to World War I and the rise of Dada. However, the women of Zurich Dada; namely the poet Emmy Hennings, artist and dancer Sophie Taeuber, dancer Katja Wulff and the dancer and musician Suzanne Perrottet, subverted traditional images of femininity through the presentation of their bodies on stage that were often radical and bizarre. Each woman found in the galleries and stages of Dada an arena for self-expression, a platform for their political views, and the impetus to revolt against entrenched artistic traditions.
