Today I spoke with the intimacy coordinator and director, Nicole Perry.
Nicole and I discussed how #ConsentMatters and #BoundarySetting in #ProfessionalSpaces after the chaos and completely inappropriate conduct displayed at #sinnersandstardust this August.
Prepare to join Nicole and me as we share a candid discussion surrounding #safety #agency and how any sort of harassment or abuse is never to be tolerated in any entertainment spectrum - either from performers, or their audiences.

00:00I don't think artistry and good storytelling exists without safety and consent and autonomy, because if I, as a performer, am not feeling safe, I'm not able to give my best performance to the storytelling, and I'm not able to be the best artist because some part of me is still monitoring people in the crowd management.
00:24Before it went up to higher-scale security and up-the-chain deal with the situation, managing events, and you're coordinating all these things, book talk, because it's been really pushed more and more.
00:36You had conventions that were ran more by Hollywood or in New York and different film industry circuits, but now it's starting to break into more of the book in a different way.
