Pier One Theatre and Kachemak Bay Family Planning Clinic present, “MOMologues” a one-evening live performance, directed by Jennifer Norton and Mercedes O’Leary, in conjunction with the visual arts exhibit, “MOTHER” at Bunnell Street Arts Center. The performance is based on the newly released book, The Momologue Collective: An Anthology by Self-Identifying Mothers gathered by multidisciplinary artist Brianna Allen and edited by Mercedes O’Leary. Live performance script curated by Brianna Allen, Claudia Haines, Mercedes O’Leary and Jennifer Norton.

“MOMologues” demonstrates how one artist’s social art practice can create a symbiotic relationship for storyteller and performer. Witness personal confessions become communal anthems. The performance and book are inspired by The Momologue Collective, a platform for self-identifying mothers to contribute anonymous and true short-stories about motherhood. The project’s mission is to build community through storytelling and to stimulate new work by artists. Learn more here https://www.momologuecollective.com/
