The singer chats with BuzzFeed about her first film, phallic sets and costumes, as well as getting people to “have a good fucking time.”

If you're even vaguely familiar with Peaches' music — her breakout hit "Fuck the Pain Away" being perhaps the best example — you already have an idea of what a musical based on the Canadian singer's life might be like: Not safe for work, yes, of course, but also dazzling in a manic, drug-induced kind of way. The semi-autobiographical journey, which Peaches describes as "fuckin' fun shit," follows the singer's route to becoming a gender-bending rock star with more than a few exploding penises, trans porn stars, and spandex-clad backup dancers along the way. With the help of a cast and crew of over 40 people and 20 songs from her previous albums, Peaches was able to act as writer, director, and star.

The plot is far from concrete and contains no dialogue, allowing (or forcing) the viewers to give into their own imaginations in order to make sense of the show. One second, a 65-year-old stripper, Sandy Kane, is sticking lit matches into her nipples, and the next, you are witnessing a dance number by fully suited-up spandex figures. Not to mention porn star Danni Daniels is in the nude for most of her time on screen.

Peaches wasn't looking to make a film when she was approached by Berlin's Hebbel am Ufer Theater to produce a musical. After 10 live performances and nearly 1,500 cuts, a movie was pulled together. The feature-length film production of Peaches Does Herself premiered at the Toronto Film Festival last year.
