Awkward Sex… and the City is returning to Black Cat for Pride Month on June 16th at 8 pm!
Awkward Sex… and the City is exactly what it sounds like: storytellers reliving intimate tales about their sex lives and breaking barriers about sex and dating. The show pairs sexual inclusion with humor and sheds light on the awkward universal experience.
“Good sex is always good sex, but it takes a special person to turn bad sex into something amazing. And that’s where our New York comedian and podcaster Natalie Wall comes in.” -Philadelphia Gay News
Awkward Sex is about taking taboo subjects and creating a safe space for all people to feel seen and heard. From cocaine infused one night stands to IBS flare ups during cunnilingus, the audience will be hanging on the performers’ every word and excited to go out and have a sexual misadventure of their own.
Doors at 8:00! Show at 8:30 pm! Tickets $20!
EVERYONE will have a blast at this show. So come on down, grab a drink, and watch New York City’s finest comedic storytellers relive their most embarrassing sexual experiences on stage just for your pleasure.
“The voyeur within will delight.” -Refinery29
