Meet the Director And Cast Members of 'The Sex Myth- A Devised Play'

In 2015, Rachel Hills, the author of The Sex Myth was a guest on Psych Up Live. Her book has been translated into a devised play opening August 2017 in NY. Central to Rachel Hills’ book was her realization that she was measuring herself by the cultural expectation that we must be sexy, sexually active and skilled in bed to be an adequate human being. With research across 10 countries, she finds this is a myth. The world is not hooking up and she is neither alone nor a loser. In fact, many are trapped by culturally imposed definitions of sexuality. “ The Sex Myth-a Devised Play” expands this with the collective stories of a cast who dare to step beyond the myths. Listen in to a behind-the-scenes interview with director, Hanne Larsen and three cast members-Jennie Runk, an American model, Non Kuramoto, an Asian actor, comedian, feminist and Jari Jones, a black trans multi-faceted artist. Each shares the personal experience of this co-created performance on their definitions of self.
