Birth the Play

Birth the Play Join us for Birth the Play on the NH Seacoast on Mother's Day Weekend 2017. The play will be performed on May 12th and 13th in Portsmouth, NH.

"In 1999, after having her first child, writer and women's empowerment leader Karen Brody met an alarming number of low-risk mothers having babies with a high level of interventions. In response to what she noticed Karen was determined to use her skills as a writer to let mothers voices tell the story of birth today. She wrote the play Birth, a documentary play about how low risk women were giving

birth, and in 2006 the play kick started BOLD, a global movement to raise awareness and money to improve birth." To learn more about the play, you can go to http://www.birththeplay.org/ -story-1. This show is a fundraiser and 75% of proceeds will benefit Hope on Haven Hill (http://www.hopeonhavenhill.org/)
