Rachel Jones, Katy Rooke and Elexi Walker whose credits include shows in America, China and the UK will take to the stage in The Queer Motherhood Project in Birmingham.
The immersive show, by Mobilise Arts, has been created from the real-life stories and lived experiences of queer mothers.
Dr Hannah Phillips, a queer mother, theatre-maker and director of Mobilise Arts who created the show and directs, said, “the show is a queer mix of art forms. In one moment, the audience will feel like they are at a queer cabaret show and the next, we’re watching real people sharing their lived queer motherhood experiences on film.
“The stories range from heartbreaking to heart-warming and everything in between. I’m interested in what society may learn from queer families and I’m grateful for the meaningful and often painful conversations I’ve had around motherhood during this project.”
Music is by Nik Haley, musical direction and videography by Rachel Jones, choreography by Liz Wilson, set design by Abigail King and digital content by Patrick Caulwell.
The Queer Motherhood Project will be presented at Midlands Arts Centre, Cannon Hill Park, Birmingham on Thursday 19 and Friday 20 September.
