Clown Sex Ed is a hilarious romp through the challenges, the failures and the horror stories of American sex education. Tara Demmy and Zachary Chiero poke fun at your gym teacher, your abstinence class and your parents' awkward talk and examine not only what they said but more importantly what they left out.
Created and Performed by Zachary Chiero and Tara Demmy
Music by Conor Sheehan Production Manager Dallas Padoven |

The show simultaneously displays the limitations of existing models of sex education (from schools, religious institutions, family) while offering a more inclusive, joy-based sex ed.
In the creation of Clown Sex Ed, Zach and Tara worked with local sex educators, utilized resources from Planned Parenthood and Advocates for Youth’s 3Rs curriculum, and their own experiences navigating sex and intimacy. The show's clown / character work emerged from Tara's training at Helikos International School of Theatre Creation under the direction of Giovanni Fusetti. Each show includes a talkback with a sexpert answering audience questions. Email [email protected] to book the show. |
Demmy and Chiero nail it. Makes the uncomfortable uproariously funny. I didn't anticipate that I would cry. |
