“Eroticism is an elixir of vibrancy, curiosity, and spontaneity that makes us feel alive. It’s the life force that keeps us connected to our sense of humanity, hope, and pleasure—especially when we are in pain [and facing adversity].” ~ Ester Perel
You’re invited to join us for a guided sensual evening of erotic self-connection.
Hosted by The Brave Collective & Allure Sensuality Emporium.
Discover what your senses reveal and remember.
Give yourself the gift of 2 hours off your phone, without responsibilities, to sip wine by candlelight, then listen, blindfolded, as selected Cape Town writers read erotica they’ve written themselves.
The evening begins with candlelight and a guided sensory wine tasting that gently brings you back into your body. Then you settle into your seat, where a maroon velvet ribbon blindfold waits for you, so you can turn your attention inward and listen deeply to sensual poetry, intimate prose and erotic storytelling.
Important: This is a seated, no-touch evening. There’s nothing to do but sip, listen, and come back to your senses and self-connection.

FAQ
What’s included?
A candlelit welcome, a guided sensory wine tasting, and a strawberry and a piece of chocolate for each guest. There’s no open bar on the night.
I don’t drink, or I follow a special diet. What should I do?
You’re welcome to bring your own non-alcoholic drink, and water is available. If you follow a special diet, please bring your own treat.
Will anyone touch me, or expect me to touch anyone?
No. This is a no-touch listening evening, and no one touches anyone.
Is anyone undressing or losing their clothes?
No. Everyone stays fully clothed the whole evening.
Do I have to read, share or take part?
No. All you need to do is sit back and listen. A carefully chosen group of Cape Town writers has been invited to share their work, and the whole evening is curated as one storytelling experience, from the first sip to the last word.
What’s the blindfold?
A soft piece of maroon velvet ribbon waits on your seat. You tie it over your eyes so you can go within; simply listen and experience.
Can I take photos, film or record?
No. This is a phone-free evening, with no photography or recording at all. You’re here to be fully present with yourself, and the writers are sharing very personal work.
Can I attend alone?
Yes. Come on your own with a Just You ticket, or bring anyone you like with a You + One ticket.
