Sex, love…and musicals? You had us at “sex.” Musical Comedy Whore! is written by and stars the very sexy David Pevsner, who based it on his true-life story (and who The Sword had a revealing interview with six years ago). One of the writers of Naked Boys Singing!, a stage performer and an erotic model, he reveals intimate sexual milestones with remarkable shamelessness—all leading up to the life-altering choice of becoming a male escort. Through the musical, he shares his difficult, emotional and hilarious road to the ultimate acceptance: owning your past and loving yourself.
“This gets pretty raw and brutally honest, and I think it’s pretty fun and entertaining,” he shares. “I think there’s a lot to identify with in the show, but I still live a double life that people might find interesting: I’m a mainstream actor with an X-rated presence on the internet. I have an OnlyFans page and an anything-goes Twitter account. I’ve been an erotic photo model for years for guys like Tom Bianchi, Jay Jorgensen and Jim Cox, and recently started posting videos, from arty to raunchy. Between my show, my photos and videos, and an upcoming book, I have a mission: anti-body shame, anti-ageism, pro-sexuality and nudity. That’s why I’m putting myself out there this way.”
When Tumblr purged adult material, David did an on-camera interview for HBO’s Vice News about how it affected him and his work: “I really want to speak out more and more against shame and bias against gay sex, sex workers and ageism.”
Musical Comedy Whore! is about his development sexually and as a musical comedy guy in New York City…until it all came together when he was performing in high profile off-Broadway shows and moonlighting as a male escort to make ends meet.
“I was, literally, a musical comedy whore, and it was a pretty kooky double life. This isn’t some cute little vanity show—it gets pretty raw, emotional and brutally honest, but it’s also funny, moving, entertaining and mostly, relatable. Ultimately, it’s about owning your choices and learning to love yourself. Very universal stuff.”
