dramatics

What does dramatics mean?

One of the two big stylistic lanes in vogue femme (the other being soft). Dramatics is the high-octane mode: speed, stunts, tricks, hard dips, the whole thing cranked to theatrical. It's about shock and impact, leaving the room gasping. Where soft is graceful flow, dramatics is a fight scene.

"She doesn't do soft; she's pure dramatics, slamming dips and spins till the floor shakes."

Origin

Ball culture / vogue femme; one of the two principal performance styles (dramatics vs. soft).
