Event description
Feminist Cabaret: music, comedy, & bold celebration of self-love.
Welcome people with and from the clitoris. From where we all doth cum.
You are invited to attend the Church of the Clitori and embark upon the one true path to Salvation. Clitoral Salvation. In the name of the finger, the tongue and the holy cum. The high priestess will deliver her service from the mound, guiding you to the true nature of worship – the goddess, the Clitoris. We will raise our voices in worship and honour the Clit – those that we have, those that we desire, those that have been removed, added and those that we have cum from – every Clit is sacred.
Expect an uplifting, engorging evening of live music, songs for you to sing along with. We will touch upon the history and science so you will know just where to find that Clitoris that you have been searching for. Participate in a requiem for orgasms lost and never found and some good ‘ol fashioned Clitoral evangelism. In fact you will rise up. At the Church of the Clitori you will find laughter, direction, truth and guidance to the highest of all worshipping acts – love. Yes my Cliterati, LOVE – self-love.
It is a feminist take on the patriarchy and dominance of the church. As brown and indigenous women we are taking on the three of the most difficult topics, church power/appropriation and genital love/female value. Receiving multiple 5 star reviews at Adelaide Fringe, Sydney Fringe, Darwin Fringe and heading to you on their February LOOOOVE tour from Brunswick to Mardi Gras.
