George Fenn Presents: Sexy Ghost Boy
Event description
Sexy Ghost Boy is a wordless interactive comedy that came from the challenge to make work exploring consent without using words. Thematically this show is a celebration of the micro-neurosis and little rituals we have around sex and appearing sexy. It is an uplifting and exciting show, which is satirical in its burlesque and invigorating through its clown. It is very, very funny.
The performer’s approach to interaction and participation is gentle, with a focus on ensuring the audience is enthusiastic consenting to each action. George Fenn is an interactive theatre comedian with decade of experience. This is not an experimental show. This is a weird show. A very good, weird show.
Official and unofficial praise Sexy Ghost Boy:
Organised Chaos Award at Auckland Fringe / 2024

Nominated for Outstanding Performer / Dunedin Fringe 2025
“A theatrical alchemist, Fenn has the rare talent to create something utterly ridiculous yet very clever…he worms his way into our brains making it crazy, yet safe. There’s an element of consent in the interaction that is miles away from the experience of sitting in the front row of some stand-ups.” - Rosheen Fitzgerald, Theatreview
"but we both feel so… I don’t even know how to describe it. I feel like I’m floating while simultaneously feeling grounded, I’m ecstatic while also very chill. Maybe it’s the full moon, or maybe I’m just a little bit possessed by the Sexy Ghost Boy." - Laura Ferguson, Art Murmurs
