Rogue: "It's OK to Like Porn"
Aaron Bonilla offends non-discriminately. He'll offend you sexually, religiously, politically and morally. Hey, at least he covers all the bases.
Bonilla is behind, "It's OK to Like Porn," the most crass and crude show on this year's Rogue Festival. It debuted Sunday night, detailing Bonilla's time working in a porn store and starts with him walking out with a blow-up doll on his shoulders. It's safe to say this one's not for kids -- or the easily offended, for that matter.
As a 25-year-old theater student at Fresno City College, Bonilla's had many jobs, but he says the most rewarding has been working at an adult store, where he gets to experience, uhhh, "cleaning the juices of life."
Minus a few first-timer mishaps and political jokes that missed the mark, "It's OK to Like Porn," was plenty entertaining. When Bonilla was on, he channeled the explanatory charm of Zach Braff's "JD" character on "Scrubs" and the unapologetic foulness of Randal Graves from "Clerks" and was a raucous hit.
He fuses his porn-store narratives with introspection of his own sexual exploits and even brings in Shakespeare and a sock puppet. I'd try to explain, but really, you have to see all that for yourself.
"It's OK to Like Porn," plays again at 8:45 p.m. Wednesday and 10 p.m. Friday.
