Bawdy Storytelling features tales of Carnal Wins & Epic Fails with No Scripts, No Nets, and No Holds Barred. These folks aren't reading from cue cards: this is honest-to-badness story time with true sexcapades and poignant, transformational tales at each and every show.

Performer Bios:
❤ Sexual Folklorist Dixie De La Tour founded Bawdy Storytelling - the Nation’s Original Sex and Storytelling series - more than a dozen years ago, despite being told repeatedly that nobody would get onstage to tell their stories of sex, kink and gender (Wrong!).This multi-city live storytelling event welcomes true stories from any and all communities (LGBTQIA, kink, polyamory, swingers, vanilla, and many more) and is bringing sex-positive storytelling to new cities all the time. Dixie and Bawdy Storytelling have been praised by press both big and small; She has been lauded as a "masterful emcee, and her show is everything that works for storytelling—she creates a warm, safe space in which stories can bloom with dark hilarity, salacious textures, and moments of deep connection.” Dixie has hosted and curated Bawdy Storytelling events at Yale Sex Week, the Bondage Awards, the Jewish Community Center of San Francicso, CatalystCon Sexuality Conference, Dark Odyssey, FetFest, and more, as well as her home turf of the Bawdy Mainstage and BawdySlam shows. She can be found at @Bawdy on Twitter, Bawdy Storytelling on Facebook and always, always at www.BawdyStorytelling.com
❤ Claire Webber started performing in dramatic theater, but was gently guided into other creative endeavors with director's’ notes such as, “You make people intensely uncomfortable” and “This production was meant to be seen by families.” Stand-up comedy was a natural fit. Claire's dedication to her odd little Id taints every aspect of her comedy and leaves an audience whimpering for more. Claire has performed at Bumbershoot and The Moth Seattle Grand Slam.
❤ Part adventurous outdoorsman, part board game nerd, Soren Berg is thrilled to make Seattle his new home.
❤ Pepper la'Rouge is a queer kinkster born and raised in Seattle. They have a passion for breaking taboos and bringing to light all the nitty gritty things that general society doesn't like to talk about. Pepper spends their time running a small business, cuddling with their partners, and most importantly parenting their awesome little kiddo.
❤ In addition to finding excuses to attend as many classes and workshops on kinky sex, making porn with friends, and seeing how far silly will get her, Angie Craig has been performing improv, sketch and stand up comedy in Seattle for years. She grew up in the northern suburbs of the emerald city, and can currently be found performing a one-woman-show, while going up and down stairs, and doing crowd control, at Bill Speidel's Underground Tours in Pioneer Square. Angie also helps produce Super Amazing Magic Fun Time with her partner & hair stylist Aaron Wheeler, with their next show on June 7th at The Pocket Theater in Greenwood.
❤ Jesse Calixto is an actor and musician who graduated with a BFA in theatre performance from the University of Idaho. He spent the last spring touring Washington state with the Seattle Shakespeare Company's Educational Tour of Romeo & Juliet and Twelfth Night. He played Bear/Human in last year's People's Choice Gregory Award-winning cast of DEERS. He can be seen playing music with his band Smoking Bill at music venues around the Puget Sound.

ABOUT BAWDY STORYTELLING
Storytelling is about building a connection. So is sex.
For over 12 years, Bawdy has featured true stories of sex, kink, body image, gender and more to build community and bring people together. We do regular live storytelling events in two cities, but that's just one way to enjoy Bawdy. Our podcast and YouTube channel are great ways to get your Bawdy fix, too.
Our live events feature an eclectic mix of authors, poets, comedians and actors – along with real people just like you - sharing their adventures in ten minutes or less, with no notes. This is honest-to-badness story time with true sexcapades and poignant, transformational tales at each and every show. Storytellers submit their material online and are chosen for their panache and sense of (mis)adventure. Dixie curates submitted stories, then works with experienced and first-time storytellers to create a one-of-a-kind evening for each and every Bawdy. Her coaching superpowers tease out surprisingly powerful stories of sex, kink or gender. Then at showtime, Dixie coaches the audience, too – creating an emotionally supportive, unintimidating, and sex-positive atmosphere that’s unique, engaging and fun. Add connecting games (like the ever-popular Bang-O) and you have a show that’ll be your new favorite social event EVER.
Come see what LA Weekly calls "The Moth for pervs" and meet new, open-minded people. Before you know it, you'll be wanting to share your stories, too.
