Event
BIRTH, a play by Karen Brody at Vashon Island High School Theatre (Seattle/Puget Sound BOLD)
*************************************************** PLENTY OF TICKETS ARE STILL AVAILABLE FOR TONIGHT'S PERFORMANCE AND CAN BE PURCHASED AT THE DOOR - DOORS OPEN AT 7:30 PM ***************************************************
The story of eight women, BIRTH delivers a theatrical experience that melds the unbridled hilarity, the unexpected poignancy, and the tragic truth about power in maternity care. Moving between first-person monologues, some dialogue, and the voices these women heard on the day they gave birth, the play BIRTH confronts "The naked truth about childbirth in America."
A theatrical experience not to be missed, BIRTH will be presented on Labor Day weekend and throughout the month of September, locally and around the world, as part of BOLD/Birth on Labor Day. Puget Sound performances will take place in Everett, Edmonds, Green Lake, South Seattle, West Seattle, Vashon Island and Tacoma.
Performances are followed by a talkback with cast members and guests from the birth profession.
************* WHAT IS BOLD? BOLD/Birth On Labor Day is a global movement to make maternity care mother-friendly through events that use the arts to inspire communities to educate themselves, speak their truth and take action on maternity care issues.
