I am coming to NYC and DC in February and would like to invite you all to a reading of "Girl-Mom." I would love to see you all, and am super keen for feedback! "Girl-Mom" is a one act play with 71 voices (read by 6 actresses). It is a play constructed from posts (with permission) to a feminist message board/online community of the same name, run by and for young/teen mothers www.girlmom.com. (Most of you know all this...) The play was read last June at a local theatre festival for emerging artists, and was read, in part, at the Mama Gathering in Minneapolis, July 2004. This coming May, "Girl-Mom" will be produced as a workshop/reading by The Citadel Theatre in Edmonton for the Teens at the Turn Festival.

What: Girl-Mom (a one act)

Where: The New Actors Workshop (259 W.30 St 2nd Floor between 7th and 8th ave)

When: On Thursday Feb 24th 2005 at 8:30pm

I am also looking for 4 or 5 womyn to read in DC. I don't have the time/place info yet, but I would need people who can devote a few hours to rehearsal and participate in the reading, which will more than likely be at The Electric Maid. (We can negotiate time and place for rehearsing) The reading runs about 40 mins. Please email me if you are interested: chocobotkid at hotmail dot com
