Carmen Ali AKA April Fiasco is a multidisciplinary performer and writer, co-artistic director of Sexquisite Events and co-organiser & dancer at Cybertease. She reveals why stand up can feel so much more exposing than sex work; how she's started bringing the funny to burlesque; creating spaces for sex workers to explore their creativity on stage; the overwhelm of group sex and how orgasming late taught her to respect her own boundaries better.
