“Ask A Stripper” returns to Edinburgh Fringe once again, and this time it’s personal. Stacey Clare (author of "The Ethical Stripper" and co-founding member of East London Strippers Collective) and Gypsy Charms (the creative powerhouse behind "The Illicit Thrill") are two former strippers, who bring their razor sharp wit and ballsy feminism into the festival context, inviting audiences to ask them anything at all. Between them they have over 30 years combined experience of dealing with boozed up punters in seedy strip joints, so no heckle is too much of a challenge.

Audiences are invited to laugh, reflect, be curious, and celebrate the women who are clearly comfortable with their jobs (for the most part) and want to demystify the sex industry. No questions are off limits in this audience Q&A hosted by two former sex workers who bare all, lifting the lid on a widely misunderstood and misrepresented world.

Stacey and Gypsy challenge social stigma and smash stereotypes in order to subvert audience expectations, gently revealing (in more ways than one) the realities of their work, unpacking myths and dispelling misinformation about the industry they both know inside out - warts and all (no pun intended).

What do strippers eat for breakfast? What really happens in the VIP room? Who’s the most famous person you’ve ever danced for? What was the most amount of money earned in a single night?

If you’ve ever wanted to ask a stripper a burning question… there’s a cream for that.
