Mother Tongue takes poetic expression to a whole new level—it’s an exploration of the universal themes of nurture, care, and the unseen strength of mothers. Mother Tongue includes 3 performances:

 
Door
By Selina Peng
This live narrated screening invites you into the heart of a mother’s story—where past and present, joy and sorrow, converge at the threshold of something new. Door is an intimate reflection on the deep bond between mother and child, the wounds of the past that complicate it, and the profound wisdom offered to us by our children.

 
Deconstructing a Lullaby
By SoulReserve
What is a lullaby, if not a soul-stirring melody woven from timeless myths and lore? SoulReserve presents a masterful long-form piece exploring the mother-child bond. Delve into the soothing essence of lullabies, uncovering their comforting nature and the myths that envelop them. This meticulously crafted piece is an all-encompassing, hypnotic poetic experience that will lull you to sleep and/or awaken your senses.

 
The Motherhood Collective
Featuring Asha Rajan, Natalie Damyanovich-Napoleon, Melissa Domiati, Carly Blenkhorn, Miriam Wei Wei Lo
The Motherhood Collective Performs Itself! What does it mean to be a mother? Five diverse poets will take you on a journey of motherhood: from babies and breast-feeding to teenaged children and empty nests. Expect every emotion from joy to anguish. Expect poetry performed with verve. Expect a little bit of music. You will never look at mothers the same way again!

 
This awesome event is one-might-only with limited seating. Hurry, book your seats now!
