Being a mom, becoming a mom, sometimes loving it, sometimes hating it, embracing it and running away: that is the inspiration for Mother.F***er. Through her own stories and those of others-she incorporates interviews with over 50 women-Suarez exposes the duality of her personal experience as a parent and as an artist, and her struggle to balance the two roles.
Mother.F***er. is presented by Highways Performance Space, Leo Garcia, artistic director, and SuarezDanceTheater. Costume design is by Marie-France Drouin, production design is by Nathalie Renard and sound design by Phil Darovic.
