Conversations at a Bathhouse Can Be Tricky
by Jim Chappeleaux | Presented by the VORTEX
Conversations at a Bathhouse Can Be Tricky is a full-length mostly solo show choreographed and performed by Jim Chappeleaux (the artist formerly known as C¹eaux). The show borrows from many artistic disciplines dance, theatre, music, and photography. Conversations at a Bathhouse Can Be Tricky is a multi-disciplined performance experience, also known as performance art.
Conversations at a Bathhouse Can Be Tricky is a scandalous, humor-filled romp through sex education. Do you like sex? Do you like nudity? Do you like gay subject material? This show contains nudity, adult situations, gorgeous guys, and bathhouse humor. Conversations at a Bathhouse Can Be Tricky details the politics of being queer in America, coming out to parents (his anyway) and sexual experiences including a homo-history of sex if you want to learn what all those hanky codes mean, then this is the show for you!
The September 19 opening night performance of Conversations will be a benefit performance for The Wright House Wellness Center. Since 1988, The Wright House Wellness Center (formerly the HIV Wellness Center) has been improving the lives of people living with HIV/AIDS, cancer and hepatitis C through holistic therapies, education and compassion.

"One-man show is so, C'eaux funny." Atlanta Journal Constitution
"A solo dance concert requires enormous energy and outflow of adrenaline balanced by a mature dramatic sense in order to control a stage single-handedly. Jim ChappeleauxŠproved that he is well on his way toward dramatic maturity." Albuquerque Journal
"Jim Chappeleaux fights with no holds
barred - He pushes all the buttons in a riptide that shakes, rattles,
and rolls - Super." Drama-Logue Hollywood, CA
