Description
Ripening is about what it takes to become a mother. It explores themes of family, self-empowerment, love, and celebrates the incredible power of a mother’s body to bring forth life.
Ripening follows Lea in the latter part of her pregnancy as she starts to prepare for what she believes will be a spiritually empowering experience of giving birth. However, when an unusually extended, sporadic pre-labour occurs, her plans are threatened by a hospital system where time is tightly managed, and babies have deadlines. Lea must face her ultimate fear of losing complete control over her body before she initiates the great transition into becoming the mother she wants to become, and finally meeting her baby in a way that is miraculous, transformative and ineffable.
Ripening is an eye-opening, funny and deeply moving play for anyone who has become a mother, knows a mother or feels called to motherhood.
On Friday 30 May the performance will be followed by a Q&A session.
