GOOFBALL DOMINATRIX - 14 US CITIES SUMMER 2008
If a Midwestern looking girl came up to you in the supermarket, told you she was a dominatrix, and invited you to see her new one-woman show you would be talking to Widow Centauri -- the funny dominatrix!
Dominatrixes are supposed to be mean, wear black, scowl and scare you, but this sassy sister of sadomasochism takes a different approach. Taking it to the stage The Widow Centauri tells wacky stories of dungeon mishap, for the "normals" in her new one-woman show If Lucy Had A Whip. The summer 2008 tour brings this kooky character to 14 US cities including glamorous places like Buffalo, Omaha, and Salt Lake City.
People make a lot of assumptions when they hear the word dominatrix. Images of black leather, whips, chains, anger and abuse often enter into the ideas of anyone who only knows about S&M because they saw it in a movie. People assume that a performing dominatrix would offer a fetish performance fit only for adults, in a bar, with an x rated pornographic theme. They would be mistaken if they thought that about this show.
If Lucy Had A Whip is a simple and entertaining show that Middle-America is flocking to see. Normal people all across the country are curious about this exotic world and Widow Centauri is just the one to deliver it. A New England teacher said "Widow Centauri is so sweet and disarming she can talk about this stuff to anyone. If your grandmother asks you about S&M don’t try to rationalize it, take her to see if Lucy Had A Whip: Tales of An American Dominatrix." Widow Centauri takes the taboo topic of S&M and humanizes it. Her bizarre antics will make the most jaded whip wielder giggle with delight but her new pg-13 show is geared for a more vanilla crowd. This talking head type one-woman-show might make you think Spalding Gray returned form the dead as a sexy dominatrix.
Widow Centauri is an independent artist who resides in Hollywood CA. She holds a degree in creative writing from Antioch University and has studied comedy at The Second City. She has been seen on Comedy Central, Showtime, and Playboy TV. Widow Centauri keeps a blog about her adventures as a professional dominatrix at widowcentauri.wordpress.com
