About Bawdy Storytelling:

Bawdy Storytelling – the Original Sex + Storytelling series – features Real People & Rockstars sharing their Bona Fide Sexual Exploits Live Onstage; think of us as a One Night Stand with the Moth & Savage Love. Storytellers are an eclectic mix of Authors, Porn Stars, Sex Educators, Comics & More, along with Regular Joes just like you who submitted their stories online and were chosen for their panache and sense of (Mis)Adventure.

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. Join Sexual Folklorist Dixie De La Tour & hand-picked Rockstars as they share their own stories of Love, Lust, and making you feel funny in your bathing suit area. Hey, you may even go home with a few new tricks for your boudoir arsenal!

A REVIEW of Bawdy Storytelling : “Stories are powerful. No other medium has the ability to move, inspire, or change us quite like a well-crafted narrative. Never has this been more true than the world of sex, where fear, shame, and misinformation abound. This is all a high-minded and roundabout way of telling you to check out Thursday’s edition of Bawdy Storytelling, a rousing and arousing night of true sex stories that promises to make you laugh, make you think, and make you hard … pressed to find a more interesting thing to do on a Thursday night.” – SF Weekly

Those Appearing includes (so far):

❤ Dossie Easton, a long time player on the San Francisco S/M scene, is co-author with Janet Hardy of The Ethical Slut, The Bottoming and Topping Books, and Radical Ecstasy: SM Journeys to Transcendence.

Dossie is a psychotherapist working with individuals, couples and more in her private practice in San Francisco, with a particular interest in how S/M journeys into Shadow can bring old wounds into the healing light of consciousness and and give them a shot of life force in the form of good hot sex.

An active sex radical since 1961, Dossie was a member of the first Board of Directors of the Society of Janus in San Francisco in 1974, and active with SFSI from 1973 to 1985. Currently she makes her home in the mountains north of San Francisco, travels to teach at conferences all over the world, and wanders through the mountains around her home declaiming filthy poetry to the vultures. You can check out her website at www.dossieeaston.com.

❤ Dixie De La Tour is a sexual folklorist, storyteller, entrepreneur, podcaster, teacher, catalyst, storytelling coach, community builder, facilitator, & instigator (& that’s just for starters). She is also the founder, curator & host of the award-winning sex and storytelling series, Bawdy Storytelling, that’s now headed into year 12 (“The original sex and storytelling series” – Playgirl, “The Moth for Pervs” – LA Weekly)

Called “a stiff shot of courage in a push-up bra”, Dixie is passionate about the art of storytelling and its ability reduce social anxiety and connect strangers. A former dating site community manager, this story-loving southerner founded Bawdy Storytelling (Real People & Rockstars sharing their Bona Fide Sexual Exploits Live Onstage). Monthly in San Francisco and Seattle and touring nationally, Bawdy Storytelling features tales of Carnal Wins & Epic Fails with No Scripts, No Nets, and No Holds Barred – at Bawdy, 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.

Dixie has been Sainted by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (“Saint Kiss & Make You Tell”), and is also the host and curator of Bona Fide storytelling and BawdySlam story slam. Her true stories can been heard on the Risk! podcast and her own award-winning Bawdy Storytelling podcast (Best Sex Podcast from Marie Claire, Uproxx and Esquire Magazine, plus Bustle voted Bawdy a “Sexy Date Idea for a Long Term Relationship”). You can follow Dixie’s antics at @Bawdy, at facebook.com/DixieDeLaTour & she’s always at www.BawdyStorytelling.com

❤ Rachel Lark is a San Francisco based singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Her music has been featured on The Savage Lovecast and Salon.com and she tours regularly throughout the U.S. and Europe. She’s made waves for her biting political satire, fearless authenticity, and hilarious, raunchy wit. She’s been called the “musical muse for the sex-positive revolution” and “in the league of Sondheim and Tim Minchin.” In 2014 she released her debut EP, “I Wouldn’t Worry,” followed by her first full-length album, “Lark After Dark,” and her Christmas album, “Hung For The Holidays.” In 2015 she successfully funded a music video and new album through a Kickstarter campaign and released her music video, “Warm, Bloody, and Tender” in August of 2015. The video was featured in several film festivals including Sacramento Horror Film Festival and Cinekink. Her album, Vagenius, was released in October of 2015. In December, 2016, Lark recorded a studio album at Tiny Telephone Studios with her band, The Damaged Goods. In March 2017 she released “They’ve Done Studies” followed by a multi-media dramatic live production at DNA Lounge called “Studies Have Shown.” She toured the production throughout the U.S. in the summer of 2017 and will be releasing a concert film of the show in 2018.
