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.” – @SFWeekly

❤ Mac McGregor is a gender and sexuality Educator, Activist, Speaker, Coach and Martial Arts & Chi Master. He is
known as the Gender Sensei. As an appointed Seattle City LGBTQ commissioner, he is asked to be a voice for the community. He works with the Seattle Erotic Arts Festival every year, as well as many other organizations that promote a sex and gender positive culture. Mac was the highest ranking female martial artist in the country. Appearing on programs such as Ripley’s Believe It or Not and the Discovery Channel. He has been a body guard for a number of popular Singers.

❤ Raised in a repressed suburb somewhere in Colorado, Summer Waldron’s penchant for storytelling began in 5th grade when she told her classmates she had a British twin cousin. Summer understands that wasn’t so much storytelling as it was flat out lying, but her passion for telling stories of her dicey life-choices was born. After debuting on Kevin Alison’s prodigious storytelling podcast Risk she has had the opportunity to perform on Emmett Montgomery’s Weird and Awesome and Magic Hat, and Kimball Allen’s Triple Door variety show debut, Triple Threat, for which she received a kind review from Amanda Knox; something she never thought she would say out loud. Summer thanks her childhood bullies and awkward sexual encounters for all the good story material, and hopes to have enough to someday fill up a book that will outsell The Bible.

❤ Ron Bryan has appeared in several local underground/alternative theater productions with In-Arts Northwest, and has also graced the stage for Jeffrey Robert’s “The Gay Uncle Presents The Good Life” and “The Gay Uncle Podcast.” This evening he takes to the story telling stage for the first time. A longtime resident of Seattle, he has recently joined the stampede of pioneers headed south to T-Town where he plans to continue pursuing his passions of baking pies, collecting 78 rpm records, gardening and other enjoyable activities on his knees. Keep up with Ron on Facebook /ron.bryan.18 or twitter @RonEBryan.

❤ Tanya Gilstrap is a polyamorous, queer, Frisbee fanatic who has spent most of her life here in Seattle. When she isn’t working her 9-5 office job, playing Ultimate Frisbee or hosting events for various poly groups, she is probably curled up with her two cats binge watching anime on Netflix. Now a regular attendee at these events, this is her second-time performing here at Bawdy and she is excited to be back on the stage.

❤ Jesse Calixto is an actor and a musician living in Seattle. He was most recently cast as “The Bear” in Annex Theatre Company’s comedy “DEERs” and will be traveling with the Seattle Shakespeare Company’s touring show in the spring. You can see him play with his full band SMOKING BILL at The Skylark in West Seattle on Friday Dec 15th.
