Bella Green Is Charging For It

Bella Green Is Charging For It
Melbourne International Comedy Festival. The Butterfly Club. April 1 – 11, 2019.

Whether you have a personal interest or you’re just fascinated about the how’s and why’s of a female sex worker, then Bella Green Is Charging For It is the show for you.

Bella Green has crafted a blend of sketch comedy, story telling and some downright  ‘dirty’ stand up while living out her childhood dream, currently performing at the Butterfly Club, as part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

Are some little girls just destined to become prostitutes?  A question in bold letters appears on the screen, followed by a retro slide show covering her pre and pubescent years. Bella Green claims she was always drawn to bad things; in year five she had her own porno club, while loosing her virginity in year 10 on the local football oval was really just an anti-climax. So by the time Bella Green turned eighteen she was already working in peep shows behind sex shops, graduating to stripper in a Men’s Clubs and moving on to working in fully serviced brothels.

Professionally poised as she struts around wearing a tight-fitted little Black dress and clobbered in bright green high heels, Bella Green holds court like a ‘real Pro’. Between skimpy costume changes and a hilarious sketch comedy – parody of Dorothy and Toto, along with funny tales of her hiatus at normal 9-5 jobs and being done for Centrelink fraud by her so called bestie, she headed back to her ‘dream job’ but now as an empowered dominatrix in a sex dungeon.

Bella Green offers tightly structured deliveries and punch lines; obviously an old hand (no pun intended) at comedy, she cut her teeth in improvisational –comedy, upfront, honest and personal. This is a blatant in–your-face show about the life and times of a real sex worker.

Marveled by the pestering hecklers and loved by her audience, she is one helluva talent. A damn funny comedy show!
