O FACE AWARD FOR MOST ORGASMIC PRODUCTION
Sponsored by Orgasmico Theatre Company
Description
This year Orgasmico celebrates 10 year anniversary since the first O Face Award given in 2013. Both the company name and the award were inspired by the same quote:
Great spiritual teachers throughout the ages have stated that orgasm is the closest some people come to a spiritual experience because of the momentary loss of self. Why is this true? Because with spiritual sex, you move beyond orgasm into a connection with yourself, your partner, and the divine — recognizing them all as one.”
-Alexandra Katehakis – Clinical Director of the Center for Healthy Sex in Los Angeles
Our Goal: We at Orgasmico Theatre Company LLC would like to single out one production, one performer, and one playwright (or composer) to each receive our O Face Award for forging that all-important connection between artist, audience and the divine, bringing all three together in an explosive* theatrical experience that transcends convention and can only be regarded as “Orgasmic.” (Please be aware that the production does NOT need to be sexual or explicit in nature to be considered for this award.):
“The Most Orgasmic Production" could be from any fringe category (comedy, drama, solo, musical, physical theatre etc…) Direction, design and ensemble achievement are all contributing factors of a great show, but ultimately we seek the production that is more than the sum of their parts; the show that doesn’t just take the audience to the edge, but hurls them over, and as they fall faster and faster into the story, their face takes on the shape of an O.
Qualifications
They only need to be registered with Fringe and be able to provide 1 to 2 tickets for the voter. All categories are considered.
Methodology
The winner will be chosen by the single voter/artistic Director Michael Shaw Fisher. There will be no committee or rubric.
