30 Years of Truth and Thunder at The VORTEX continues with the urgent, unashamed art of Madison Young for 4 nights only, February 22-25, 2018. The VORTEX presents this new, experimental multi-media performance: Reveal All Fear Nothing: A Journey in Sex, Love, Porn and Feminism, written and performed by Madison Young. Reveal All Fear Nothing cracks open the sexual underground worlds of BDSM, pornography, and kink, celebrating and demystifying these often misunderstood and misrepresented communities and movements. On tour nationally, Reveal All Fear Nothing has already received critical acclaim in New York, Portland, OR, and San Francisco, and now makes its Austin debut. For Mature Audiences only– 21 and over.

Developed with the legendary Annie Sprinkle, a long-time friend of The VORTEX, Reveal All Fear Nothing is an adaptation of Sprinkle’s one woman show, Post Porn Modernist, performed from 1989-2004. Annie Sprinkle first performed at The VORTEX in January 1994 to sold out crowds for Post Porn Modernist, the first of many collaborations with The VORTEX. Annie will be joining Producing Artistic Director Bonnie Cullum at The VORTEX for Madison Young’s performances and additional events.

Academy Award winner Diablo Cody says of Young’s work, “Young brings some universal truths to light”; actress and thought leader Margaret Cho adds “[Young is]…an incredible and singular force in the world of art…her individualism, innovation, insight and innate intelligence…is downright inspirational.”
