In American healthcare, advocating for oneself is a high-stakes move.
my Womb is a one woman show that follows the journey of a mother preparing for birth + death…
Journey with heroine “O” as she navigates through pitfalls of the medical sector’s systemized and horrifically habitual dismissal of reproductive pain, in order to save her own life.
my Womb is about the disconnection between patients and medical staff in the American healthcare sector, it’s about a woman arranging her death while preparing to give birth - with a burlesque bit and some puppets! -J Rich, Director
