Joy de Vivre: The Sexy Show

Overview

Sex. Yup. Even the word is funny. And Joy de Vivre, fresh from the sold out Fringe Festival debut, is here to make it even funnier. Her comedy show is made up of funny stories, not so funny stories,  weird stories and some stories that she really wishes she could forget. The comedian is a former yoga teacher, no sorry, not just a yoga teacher, an aerial yoga teacher. Yes, that’s right, she taught the downward dog whilst suspended in the air. You can imagine that this job accommodated its fair share of funny stories, and de Vivre shared these at her debut show, which she presented whilst suspended in the air of course.

In her latest act, The Sexy Show, Joy de Vivre takes audiences through her sexual history, and explores the roles that sex plays in daily life. She aims to demystify sexual stereotypes and animates those renowned femme fatals that are so famous for their objectified sexuality. That is a whole lot of sex talk. But don’t worry, it wont be a repetition of that awkward talk you had with your parents at age thirteen. There will be no exchange of puberty books or instruction manuals. Joy just wants to enlighten audiences by discussing the funny side of sex. Oh, and she also promises some near-nudity.
