About this Event

What Is Erotic?® Presents: REFLECTION

Opens Valentines Day Weekend, four shows only

For two decades, What is Erotic?® has tempted and teased, empowered and emboldened. It’s been playful and provocative, vibrant and vulnerable. And now it’s time to Reflect. To look into one another’s eyes and deep within ourselves.

Join us for Reflection - our twentieth year of dance, aerial performance, poetry, comedy, and more, as local artists explore relationships, gender, self-love, kink, identity, and each other. Our Mission: in answer to a culture of objectification, What is Erotic?® leads from the heart, breaking through stereotypes to spark a safer and more vibrant conversation around sexuality, sensuality, and empowerment.

This original show is a cabaret of all original performance art, created by local artists from diverse groups designed to have you squirming in your seat, laughing out loud and asking our favorite One Provocative Question, What Is Erotic?®
