Description

A diverse group of seven writers comes together to create seven tender scenes about their hopes for the future.

"The seven of us, a diverse group of elders, have endured, loved, lost and celebrated life in our own ways. Now, we decided, we would write a production for the stage, voicing our different experiences and what we came to realize are similar concerns about the future of our families, our planet, its peoples and its incredible network of flora and fauna."

The Many Mothers Collective came together during the pandemic, hoping to make sense of the world that they found themselves in. What they found is that they needed to focus not only on the present moment, but on the world they would leave for their children and grandchildren -- and for seven generations into the future. In seven scenes for the stage, they explore where we have come from and where we are going, with a deep hopefulness rooted in resistance.
