Over on idiversity, Stephen Beale’s blog post on Sex week has gotten a lot of attention. After the director of Brown’s sex week found the post, she put it all over the internet, and her minions flocked to try to defend the week of sex-filled, orgiastic, bath house style indefensible revelry. Everything is done in the name of exploration, as if that were a an absolute good. What I found most curious is the director’s description of the Wet Spots performance. It’s a “Night of Sex, Toys & Caberet” where a husband and wife team will sing “sweetly about threesomes and taking it in the ass.” I’m so excited, I can’t wait to donate money to Brown where I know it will be put to good use.
A Night of Sex, Toys, & Cabaret feat. The Wet Spots
9:00pm @ Salomon 101
Description: Join us for our grand Sex Week finale! We’ve built up the anticipation for a week, and now that we’ve had our fun, it’s time for a delicious climax. Metaphorically, of course. In addition to a performance by The Wet Spots, we’ll announce the winners of our Brown Erotica Competition and raffle off a ridiculous amount of products from our awesome sponsors. (We guarantee there have never been this many sex-toys in Salomon 101 before.) If you haven’t gotten any raffle tickets yet, you can still get them at this event, so bring cash, come early, and get ready for a red-hot evening.
Performers: Picture a husband and wife team from the golden age of comedy. Now picture them singing sweetly about threesomes and taking it in the ass. Internationally acclaimed cabaret duo The Wet Spots (Cass King and John Woods) write the most elegant songs about sex that you will ever hear. The pair presents an image that is vaudevillian, oversexed, and weirdly Canadian: Think sex club by way of Monty Python. Using a lively blend of original songs, audience interaction, spankings and singalongs, The Wet Spots draw their fans into a world where the libido is celebrated and satirized. Their songs have been licensed for TV shows like The L Word and live credits include The Center for Sex and Culture (San Francisco), The Museum of Sex (NYC), and many Pride events including the first ever queer comedy showcase in Africa (Cape Town Comedy Festival).
