Tonight! Last chance to see One Body: Dispatches from Idaho, Saturday, September 19 in Hallie Flanagan Studio Theatre at 7:30 pm. Tickets are FREE. Come early and learn about Abortion Advocacy initiatives in Massachusetts and Idaho, stay after for feedback and discussion with the amazing creative team and Carrie Baker, who organized the One Body residency at Smith College.
One Body is a live, one-woman show based on true stories from Idaho women, doctors, politicians, and activists in an intimate exploration of the real-world repercussions of abortion bans in deeply conservative states written by Jimmy Maize, based on the work of Jen Jackson Quintano, founder of The Pro-Voice Project.
“I hope that audiences will see that abortion activism—or any social justice effort—is not the work of experts and professionals alone,” says Quintano. “We are all capable of telling, listening to, and amplifying the stories necessary for lasting cultural change. Narrative activism is powerful because it’s accessible. Stories aren’t beyond us. They’re within all of us.”
Directed by Maridee Slater and Jimmy Maize, performed by Emily Donahoe. Presented in partnership with the Program for the Study of Women, Gender & Sexuality, the Smith Office for the Arts, and the Theatre Department. A conversation with the production team follows. Tickets are free. Reservations suggested at smitharts.ludus.com.
