FIRSTS

Let's start at the very beginning. Firsts. In this episode of The Slow Dance, you'll hear teenagers talk about the beginnings of lust. Is it part of puberty - or earlier - or later? We'll hear about the joys and the sorrows of first kisses, first relationships, first sexual experiences. We'll journey into house parties and playgrounds. And we'll question whether passing the threshold from virginity to sexual being is a 'fall from paradise' or a lifelong adventure.

Om Podcasten

'The Slow Dance' is a podcast in which teens talk to teens about sex. In autumn 2020, we interviewed dozens of teens from Scotland, Norway, and Denmark about sex, lust, and relationships. These conversations have been edited into themed episodes. 'The Slow Dance' is one strand of the mixed artform 'Untitled Discotheque Project' by Shotput, a dance-theatre company in Glasgow. www.shotput.org Directed and hosted by Lucy Ireland and Jim Manganello Edited and produced by Amanda Stanley Music by Cat Myers Illustrations by Ashwin Chacko
