Enter the world of What Is Erotic?®, original performance art asking our favorite One Provocative Question, through pole and aerial dance, comedy, theatre, burlesque and spoken word. Every year we present an original show, designed to have you squirming in your seat, laughing out loud, and asking yourself, What Is Erotic?® Our 2025 Valentines show, A Bedtime Story, is a cabaret of all original performance art, created by local artists from diverse groups. Join us as we adventure through the lands of gender exploration, temptation, relationship, seduction and fantasy, employing classic stories retold through our What Is Erotic?® lens.
Our Mission: in answer to a culture of objectification, What is Erotic?® leads from the heart, breaking through stereotypes to spark a safer and more vibrant conversation around sexuality, sensuality, and empowerment.
