Licentious: A Return to Kink
Connections Nightclub
Friday, December 1 2023
After a sell-out season at Fringe World earlier in the year, local producer Mya Tension brings Licentious: A Return to Kink out again for a two-night December run, before Fringe again next month.
Licentious is equal parts burlesque and fetish, entertainment and education. As Mistress of Ceremonies, with the emphasis definitively on Mistress, Mya Tension takes the audience through informed consent and risk aware consensual kink at almost every transition point between acts.
And what acts. The performances are a veritable tasting platter of fetish and kink. Included are wax play, shibari, voyeurism and its almost twin, exhibitionism, pet play, spanking, light flogging, and even electro play. All basically set at the light introduction level.
Leaning back into the education aspect, MC Mya tells the audience to do plenty of research before trying any of this at home. Or to reach out to the Perth community, with plenty of willing, experienced teachers. Or even just to drop Mya a DM on the socials, to be pointed in the right directions.
Licentious is a high energy rush of endorphins. The performers are all living their best lives on stage, and the packed, diverse audience is fully on board wherever we are headed. While asking any appropriate questions.
Bring on Fringe World 2024 and the next stanza of dates.
