Graphic Confessions at LitQuake!
The Blue Macaw, 2565 Mission Street, San Francisco
Doors open at 7 PM, Stories start at 8 PM
What is Bawdy? Is it tales of love and lust gone wrong? Is it erotica? Is it a story that doesn’t fade out when it gets to the good part? Bawdy is all those things and more. Every month, our storytellers get up and share the perils of sexual mishaps, poorly planned evenings and stellar successes. It’s the juicy bits, held to the standards of a well-told story.
This month, our storytellers are not limited to any particular theme; they’re bringing the gold and sharing their best true stories of roadblocks and strokes of luck on the path to Sexual Nirvana. The quote “Experience is what you get when you don’t get what you want,” should be kept in mind as you enjoy an evening of sexy education and entertainment. Bawdy Storytelling doesn’t aim to get you aroused, but it could happen…
