SWers have always been a part of the story, you just won’t hear about those stories in most history classes. That’s why this show matters and captivates. Wh(o)res Eye View is 75-minute mad dash through 10,000 years of history from a SWer’s perspective, written and performed by Old Pros Founder and Executive Director Kaytlin Bailey.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Old Pros Debuts #OldProProject

PODCAST: https://oldprosonline.org

Elevating sex worker history and storytellers across the country: Originally created as a response to COVID-19 in 2020, the #OldProProject provides financial resources and encouragement to sex worker artists and advocates to celebrate their shared history.

Projects include short documentaries, interactive historical maps, a calendar of deities, and mythologically inspired burlesque performances.

“Sex worker artists and advocates are changing the story about sex work.” Kaytlin Bailey, Old Pros Founder and Executive.

“I hope my art speaks to the BIPOC community, especially femmes. We are so used to seeing trauma and violence towards women. My art for this show portrays how it should be.” Says participating Seattle based artist D’Monica Leone.

“One of the ways that we can create change is through the art and act of storytelling. The impact of these stories and this project pack a hell of a punch.” Mx. Pucks A’Plenty, National Co-Coordinator for #OldProProject.

Old Pros creates conditions to change the status of sex workers in society through the power of proximity in storytelling, media, and networks.
