Tipi Confessions has a rolling submission deadline for stories/performances.

Submit your Story.​ Become a Tipi Confessions performer! We seek diverse voices, especially if stories like yours often go untold. We are an ALL-INCLUSIVE enterprise: we welcome storytellers and performers of all genders, races, sexualities, and abilities. 

We encourage you to submit sexually-themed stories and performances. Your performance doesn’t need to be “erotic” (although we love well-crafted erotica), but it should pertain positively to sex and sexuality. Consider telling your story from a political, humorous, creative, decolonial, feminist, and/or educational perspective. We want stories that fit our mission of ethics, education, and entertainment around sex, sexuality, and gender.

Types of Performances.​ Our shows have featured spoken word readings, personal narrative, memoir, fiction, burlesque, live musicians, stand-up comedy, short theatre performances/stage readings. We are also open to video clips and lively short lectures.

How to propose a concept. Please complete the submission form. Describe and explain your proposed performance, but also include some context for us such as motivation and intent. If you have specific questions about our expectations, please ask. Email attachments to tipiconfessions@gmail.com.

The Review Process. Acceptances may be contingent upon an audition/interview (via Zoom/Google Hangouts).

Tipi Confessions is an Indigenous-produced sexy storytelling and cabaret show based out of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada produced by two Indigenous women: PhD student Kirsten Lindquist (Métis Nation of Alberta), and Assistant Professor (MacEwan University) and PhD student Brittany Johnson (Beaver First Nation). We are an offshoot of the popular Austin, Texas show, Bedpost Confessions™, founded in 2010. For more information, visit tipiconfessions.com.
