Ron Low had a two-decade career helping over 65,000 circumcised men undertake non-surgical foreskin restoration using "TLC Tugger" devices he invented. But those guys didn’t all have to sit through his catchy pro-foreskin songs. That’s where you come in. Laugh, sing along, and learn about better sex.

The Foreskin Diaries is Ron's fun and poignant musical slide show to keep you laughing while you learn what the foreskin is and does, how and why men do foreskin restoration, why we need to protect children from forced genital cutting, what measures have been successful, and what could happen next.

Ron's songwriting influences are Elvis Costello, Brad Roberts, Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, and Carole King. He performs on an exotic stringed instrument called a Harpejji, accompanied by backing tracks, while wearing one of his tugging devices under his kilt.

Enjoy this show and you may become an "intactivist" - an advocate for the basic human right of all male, female, and intersex children to be protected from non-therapeutic genital procedures. Over a billion men - including someone you love - have been cut and are missing out on a lot (whether they realize it or not). Don't miss this chance to find out how you can help bring the world better sex and a brighter future. (slideshow includes nudity)

News and Reviews for this Show

August 30, 2025  The List Sex education is given a subversive, sometimes queasy makeover with a discussion of non-surgical circumcision ‘You’re doing sex wrong’. So says Ron Low, a David Byrne hair-alike wearing snazzy glasses, a t-shirt emblazoned with the aforementioned slogan and a fashion magazine friendly kilt from which dangles a tube-shaped weight swinging from what we shall politely call the sporran area. The latter is the TLC Tugger, an implement of Low’s design to help offset the effects of circumcision in a non-surgical manner. Low is on a mission here, as he regales us with some horror-show statistics regarding the perilous effects of what some might consider a rite-of-passage, but which can cause long lasting and sometimes horrific damage, not least, it seems, in a person’s sex life. Low’s lo-fi teach-in is punctuated by a series of songs in which he accompanies himself on a harpejji, an electronic instrument invented in the early noughties that looks like a hi-tech ironing board. Over a series of didactic ditties that act as a call to arms and other pieces of anatomy, Low’s crooning sounds like Lou Reed singing a Rugrats soundtrack in a show that should probably be on prescription. Worth a look if you have the balls. Click Here

August 1, 2025 Broadway Baby - Kate Copstick Owners and lovers of the foreskin might find their people here One person speaking their truth with passion should, I believe, be applauded – in principle. And so I cannot dismiss Ron Low's hour delivering The Foreskin Diaries out of hand – if you'll excuse the pun. Ron is about as militant as it gets when it comes to the foreskin – he calls himself an 'intactivist' – and invented the TLC Tugger, the purpose of which is to restore the foreskin of a circumcised male. It has, to date, restored over 63,000. His hour comes to you in the Musicals and Opera section of the programme. So, horrendous details of devastated relationships, ruined sex lives, suicide and gruesome photos (yes, you will see a lot of male junk here) are interspersed with songs. To my ear, it did sound more like one song in several variations, with lines like "Between your thighs, my fragile pride abides" and titles like Love Through My Boy's Eyes. Ron’s outrage is expressed in a 'more in sorrow than in anger' tone. But words like mutilation, penetrative assault, and amputation fly freely. We are asked to close our eyes and imagine a world without male circumcision and exhorted to persuade pregnant friends to leave their boys intact. Owners and lovers of the foreskin might find their people here, Upstairs at Laughing Horse @ Bar 50. Click Here
