Author, radical feminist performance artist, and director Madison Young offers an alternative to chocolates and roses on Valentine's Day weekend, with the world premier of her new theater piece, "Reveal All Fear Nothing: A Journey in Sex, Love, Porn and Feminism" February 12 - 14, directed by Sophia La Paglia.

Held at the world famous San Francisco Armory (home to Kink.com), a theater has been constructed in the Armory's massive Roman Bath set. The pop-up theater will seat 100 audience members each evening.

"Reveal All Fear Nothing: A Journey in Sex, Love, Porn and Feminism" is a multimedia performance and experimental theater piece, written and performed by Madison Young, and developed in collaboration with the legendary Annie Sprinkle. The piece is a modern adaptation of Sprinkle's wildly successful and internationally toured theater piece, "Post Porn Modernist," and aims to crack wide open the sexual underground worlds of BDSM, pornography, and kink, all while demystifying and celebrating these often misunderstood, and misrepresented, communities and movements.

Young and Sprinkle have developed a modern-day version of "Post Porn Modernist," which brings to life Young's own unique sexual journey into kink and pornography as a feminist, through fearless performance art. The graphic body-based performance art includes an anal fisting performance piece, blow-job ballet, and a climactic org*smic ritual, which has been handed down from Sprinkle to Young.

"I'm so thrilled to be creating a theater space at the Armory for this world premier, and with the help and guidance of my fairy art mother - Annie Sprinkle. It feels so right to be presenting this piece for the first time ever right here in San Francisco," says Young. "Many of my sexual adventures, which I explore in 'Reveal All,' started right here at the Armory and in San Francisco. This city, and this building, have played a huge part in my sexual evolution, and it seems only right to premier this really intimate work in this epic building."

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."

"Reveal All Fear Nothing: A Journey in Sex, Love, Porn, and Feminism" will enjoy its run February 12 - 14 at the San Francisco Armory, 1800 Mission St, SF, CA 94103. Tickets ($20 - $106) may be purchased in advance at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/madison-youngs-reveal-all-fear-nothing-a-journey-in-sex-love-porn-feminism-tickets-19972820243. Doors open at 7pm; the show will start promptly at 8pm. This is a 21+ only event.

Group ticket bundles of 10 tickets are available for a total of $339. Following the performance, at 10pm, Young will be hosting an intimate VIP Experience, sponsored by Good Vibrations. Held at the Armory Club (1799 Mission St), the VIP event includes a red carpet cocktail party, intimate Q&A with Young, photo ops, and signings with Young. Those participating in the VIP experience will also receive a decadent swag bag.
