After a successful New York premiere, Wild Child Presents brings the two-woman, multimedia performance, "HER KIND: The Life & Poetry of Anne Sexton," to the San Francisco Fringe Festival. Pulitzer Prize-winning author, "Anne Sexton was the modern woman poet who first gave extended voice to issues of female identity," (Diane Middlebrook). "HER KIND" incorporates character portrayals, video clips, modern dance and Sexton's vivid poetry and explores the macabre, riveting world of one of the most popular and controversial American poets of the 20th century.
