Good Girl’s Guide: Dominatrix for Dummies

With Eleanor O’Brien

Dance Naked Productions

Orlando International Fringe Theatre Festival – Green Venue</strong>

What’s more iconic than a good looking woman in heels, a bustier and a toy whip? Eleanor O’Brien starts the show by demanding complete obedience from the audience. Turns out this audience LIKES it rough and after a short explanation of the dungeon rules and the “safe word” we are off for a lesson in submission and a fascinating story of how O’Brien ended up in the dom and sub world. Acting degrees don’t always lead to HBO specials and Eleanor ends up cruising Craig’s list as a cheap hobby. An ad for a “$75 No Experience Necessary” job gets a gig in “The Jewel Box,” a kinky palace in anonymous New York building. With few skills but great enthusiasm, she learns the trade, and finds the business of cleaning up bodily by-products is nowhere near sexy. Let’s just say: She earned that $75.

Be warned – besides the sexual overtones and nudity of this show, there are some wince inducing experiences described. The byways and back alleys of human sexuality can be quite convoluted and weird, and I’ll agree with her on the one big question: “How the hell did he decide THAT was what will get him off?” A damn good question and a damn good show.
