Love Lessons from a Retired Sexworker

You probably think you have nothing in common with the sex workers you see in red light windows. But just like you, they are protecting their hearts against pain. Only their armour is sex. You will laugh, you will cry, you will experience vulnerability and leave the theater ready to find the love of your life.

Biography

Award-winning theatre maker and popular YouTuber Indie Nile is the first (and only) "drag therapist". He blends the art form of drag & pop culture with so much vulnerability and genuine self-help tools. Indie was born in Italy to a Palestinian father, raised in Dubai and then trained as a filmmaker in New York before settling down in Amsterdam and starting a career as a drag performance artist. Before drag, Indie was an acclaimed documentary filmmaker tackling taboo subjects in a hard-hitting stories. After drag, the hard-hitting stuff is still there, only now it's wrapped in a pretty wig, a catchy lipsync and some stand-up comedy. When you're at an Indie Nile show, you will begin healing your abandonment wounds but you wouldn't know it because you'll be too busy jamming to your favorite pop songs.
