FAQ:

  • My kid is 17. Please may they join us? I'm afraid not. While I believe teens need great sex ed, I need to protect myself legally, especially these days. No one under 18 is allowed.
  • Is it okay if my partner and I... you know? Please be dressed at the beginning so I can confirm your age, then turn your camera and sound off. What we don't know won't hurt us.
  • How explicit are the stories? Not very. These are folktales. Even if a story clearly states what's happening, it's not particularly descriptive. It's not a sexy show. The death stories are also pretty straightforward.
  • I get the sex part but death? Really? Really! There are some amazing stories about death.
  • Will you record it and make the recording available? Yes. Look for the "playback only" ticket option.
  • Where can I find out more about you? I'm glad you asked. laurapacker.com.
