Katharyn Henson / Free FestivalProfessional company

60 minutesThe Loft
A BDSM dungeon is only as good as its staff: the dommes, subs, and of course, the manager. In order to fund her dreams when starting out in stand-up comedy in New York City, Katharyn Henson worked a day job as the manager of a BDSM dungeon. From her desk in the office of the dungeon, Katharyn served as the conduit between clients and her co-workers, becoming immersed within a world often judged and misunderstood and experiencing real stories involving the brilliant, funny and flawed people that shape such an unconventional workplace.

About the show

Stories from the Office of a Sex Dungeon is a free true-life storytelling and stand-up comedy show by Katharyn Henson. To fund her dreams when starting out in stand-up comedy in New York City, Henson worked as the manager of a BDSM dungeon. From her desk in the office, she served as the conduit between clients and her co-workers, becoming immersed in a world often judged and misunderstood. The show shares real stories of the brilliant, funny and flawed people that shaped that unconventional workplace. It runs for 60 minutes at The Loft and is for ages 18 and over.

Why see this show?

Real stories from a real workplace that very few people have access to — told by someone who was at the centre of it all, managing the day-to-day realities rather than theorising about them. Frank, funny and genuinely curious about the people involved.
