BIRTH is a play based on over one hundred interviews playwright Karen Brody conducted with mothers across America who gave birth between 2000-2004. It tells the true stories of 8 women painting a portrait of how low-risk, educated women are giving birth in America today.
Cincinnati is one of many cities around the world organizing productions of BIRTH as part of BOLD 2008 (www.boldaction.org). BOLD (Birth on Labor Day) is a global movement that raises awareness about maternity care issues, raises money for organizations working to make maternity care mother-friendly, and validates mothers’ birth experiences in all communities worldwide.
The 2008 BOLD in Cincinnati is being produced by Birth & Beyond: Advocates for Woman Centered Healthcare. Proceeds from the play will benefit this local nonprofit organization which advocates for woman centered health care that supports and provides options for women of all socioeconomic means and their families, through education, resource and referral, community relations and healthcare policy. www.birthnbeyond.org
