This Ain’t Your Mother’s Theater Company!
Stories of heartbreak and healing from The Medea Project - Theater for Incarcerated Women/HIV Circle, an ensemble of women working together across backgrounds, race and ages, finding power in telling their raw truths - to themselves and to the world.
Founded in San Francisco County Jail by Rhodessa Jones, The Medea Project brings a unique voice to theater - women whose stories would never be told without the anchor and support of the group's powerful creative process.
"This Ain't Your Mother's Theater Company!" is searing dramatic narrative of the deep connections between women’s health and reproductive rights, and the stark realities of rape, of living with HIV and of women finding their voices in a patriarchal and often brutal world.
Featuring Rhodessa Jones, founder & director of The Medea Project.
Music by Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids.
