Meghann and Gigi's project Chlamydia Dell'Arte: A Sex-Ed Burlesque will make sexual education fun and accessible using the structure of a traditional burlesque show. They will incorporate an MC, strip tease, comedy, songs and dance. The show centers on topics including anatomy, safe sex practices, STDs, sexual and gender orientations, menstruation, and sexual roles and role-playing. Gigi and Meghann will work as co-writers and performers of the show. The objective of the show is to both entertain and educate. The artists aim to incite the audience to evaluate attitudes about sex, consider other ideas, and make smarter sexual decisions.
