More Naked Than Ever

Sexual adventure stories Granny never told you

Becoming a sex worker at 55 was not in the cards. From violin teacher to erotic muse, Charla Hathaway has toured the globe with her show, Naked at My Age, turning sexual shame into standing ovations. Now the author of How to be a Prostitute and Not Get Fucked brings you a new one-woman show, More Naked Than Ever, telling you stories of her amazing clients from a 20-year pioneering career. Who goes to sex workers, what are they looking for, how do you teach intimacy? Sexual Fairy Godmother Charla beckons you behind closed doors to witness magic, story by story, of how people get unstuck and reclaim desire. These stories of courage and longings are told by a woman who has lived every inch of them.

“Poised and superb, Charla blends simple truth & profound insight, performing with self-confidence, vulnerability & humor.”  -Dame Catherine Healy, leader of New Zealand’s campaign that decriminalized sex work

Nicole Medema is THE DOMME

Pleasurable, playful, and personal, The Domme demands the audience's best behavior. Welcome to the mistress’ dungeon, where you, the audience, have the opportunity to comply with her orders. Want to please the madam? Here’s a clue how: her kinks are civic engagement, accountability, positive self-talk, and really stupid jokes. This interactive comedy is a facilitated container of sexy reinforcement. Whatever safe word you use, The Domme is a fun and provocative way of using sexual power for transformation. It's more than a show-- it's a collective experience.

Nicole is a multidisciplinary artist blending clown, theater, and the mytho-spiritual to reframe relationships with life’s unchangeable forces. Her work has led her primarily to the stage to share stories through physical comedy. She leads workshops exploring play, failure, and pleasure through the Fool archetype. Besides artistic exploration, Nicole guides grieving rituals, wilderness rites of passage, and other ceremonies that honor human suffering and triumph. She is a co-founder of the Coyote Call Circus in her hometown Eugene, Oregon.
