WANT TO BE PART OF THIS SHOW? HERE’S HOW:

This is Bawdy’s curated mainstage show, and here’s how it typically works:

Step 1. I put out a call for storytellers, and announce the theme. You tell me the city you’re pitching for, and the theme you’re pitching for (‘Slippery Slope’ in Seattle)

Step 2: Send me a recording of you telling your story, all the way through — it needn’t be stage ready, just you telling me the story. Please label the email (the subject line) with the theme and the city (example: ‘Story Pitch for Slippery Slope’ in Seattle). Send the story pitch to Dixie@BawdyStorytelling.com You will want to perform in front of this audience. Appreciative, respectful and HUGE.

Step 3: I chose the storytellers, we do a story coaching session, and then you’re ready to ROCK the stage on show night.

Also: Do you have a bio of 100 words or less? Send your bio along with your story pitch and we’ll be even more ready to put you onstage, if the story is a fit for Bawdy.

A Reminder on how Bawdy works:

  • Bawdy is a live stage performance series. It is storytelling, which means using your words, not your body — no nudity or sex acts are accepted. The person who had the true adventure gets up onstage in one of the cities we’re in (currently: San Francisco, Seattle, LA or Chicago) and tells their story to the audience.
  • Stories told at Bawdy are True, & told by the person who lived the adventure
  • Stories are Told (not read off paper)
  • Stories relate to Sex, Kink or Gender and typically, a theme.
  • Your story should be told in 10 minutes or less

When: Thursday May 5, 2016
Time: 8pm-11pm
Where: Re-Bar Seattle, 1114 Howell Street, Seattle, WA 98101

Dixie and Bawdy Storytelling have been praised by press both big and small; She has been lauded by Master Storyteller Mike Daisey 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, CatalystCon Sexuality Conference, Dark Odyssey, FetFest, and more, as well as her home turf of the Bawdy Mainstage and BawdySlam shows.

She also leads storytelling workshops where would be storytellers can hone their craft (while arousing their audience).In her spare time, Dixie can be found causing trouble in the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, New York, Seattle, Portland, and any other major city where literate perverts gather to tell dirty stories – and always, always at www.BawdyStorytelling.com
