WILD-HER-NESS!
See this as your poetic education, your sexual ventilation, you dreamer! You sensation! Fresh from a hit-n-run at Melbourne Fringe, WILD-HER-NESS! is coming to you this FRINGEWORLD 2019. A show about growing with (or without) your body, wise words from mum and the uncanny power of language. This eclectic storytelling, psycho-comedy, spoken word presentation is our reminder that letting go ain't always pretty. A show that addresses tough feminist issues with honesty, tenderness, and surrealism? WILD-HER-NESS! is for vagina bearers and admirers alike, for the romantics, the strange, the lovers and feelers - it is about letting the subjective free, having multiple identities, living fluidly, and is more than anything, an ode to women being bloody resilient creatures.
