Description
A mad dash through 10,000 years of history from the perspective of a sex worker. Through historical canonized characters, Whore's Eye View traces the evolution of the sacred whore from deified, to demonized, to diseased. Weaving comedic storytelling with the wisdom of her own lived experience and contemporary observations, Kaytlin Bailey artfully unpacks the complex, age-old stigma underpinning a status quo designed to keep women in their place. 'The solo show mixes erudition with earthiness. It flows from unfiltered divulgence to impassioned thesis, all leavened by a parade of well-honed zingers' (San Francisco Chronicle).Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
