Betty Grumble: Sex Clown Saves The World

GRUMBLE_SHOW IMAGE 1.

The inimitable sex clown Betty Grumble returns to save Fringe World at this year’s festival. The surreal feminist showgirl turns performance art upside down with her incredible performance.

In her own words, Grumble told OUTinPerth last year that one of her shows is “a collision of comedy and horror. She is a surreal showgirl and always delivers highly energetic thrashings of song and dance.”

“It’s a genre-smash of drag, feminist performance art, cabaret, burlesque and shamanic striptease. She is grotesque and seductive, a faery at the bottom of the garden and sex clown spinning in the middle of the dance floor.”

Let Betty Grumble save you from greed, lack of empathy, cruelty, war, the patriarch, fracking, fascism, bigots, ourselves and the tyranny of the mundane with her award-winning show.

Betty Grumble: Sex Clown Saves The World will be at the Circus Theatre in the Perth Cultural Centre from Saturday January 28th – Friday February 3rd. You can also catch Betty at The Glory Republic Queer Party on February 4th. Tickets available from fringeworld.com.au
