Naked City TV Sneak Peek: Christen Clifford
Posted at 3:23 PM Jun 13, 2008
I met Christen Clifford for the first time in December 2005 at a panel we were on at the Museum of Sex. The panel was in celebration of the release of the massive Disinformation anthology Everything You Know About Sex is Wrong - I've got a piece in the book titled "My First Fetish: Or, How I Fought Mediocrity," while Christen has a piece in the book called "Baby Love," which is also the title of her first one-woman show. "Baby Love" is Christen's exploration of a topic that I haven't heard anyone else talk about in such a powerful way: the sensual and sometimes erotic physicality of being a mother.
Her new one-woman show, "Fuck Me Like it's 1945, a.k.a. (What I Know About) My Parents' Sex Life, a.k.a. the elderly sexuality project" premiers at P.S. 122 on June 19th and runs through June 25th. This week I got the chance to see her first run-through in front of an audience, plus interview her about the two different pieces and her perspective on the issues of family and sexuality.
