BottomDonné Restom is a multidisciplinary artist, singer, writer and storyteller. She is the founder of sell-out storytelling event, ‘Kink in the Tale’ and her debut one woman show, ‘Everyone in my Family is Dead or About to be’ (Directed by Nadia Townsend) was nominated for Sydney Fringe Festival 2024’s Best in Theatre Award.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Hilarious, outrageous, liberating – this tour de force of storytelling breaks taboos and warms hearts. Loved it!” — Lefreq (for Kink in the Tale)
Long time lover of eroticism, irreverence, and saying out loud the things that make you blush, Donné was the sex advice columnist for Ralph magazine’s horny teens in her twenties, and the sex writer for the chronically tired mums of Kidspot in her thirties.
She majored in Jazz Voice at The Sydney Conservatorium of music, toured internationally with renowned LA-based circus, Lucent Dossier Experience. She has written and released three albums, and is currently working on her fourth with Aaron Flower. The first single from the new album, Great Circle is out now.
“You seldom hear words married so perfectly to music. Great Circle spins on its enthralling narrative arc and its spartan-to-sumptuous music simultaneously.” — John Shand
