Come On, We Know You Have It In You!

LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER seeks Spokane writers to read their own original essays on any aspect of motherhood at the Lair Auditorium, Spokane Community College, for one 3:00 p.m. performance on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 8, 2011.

Auditions will be held on Saturday, February 26 at Manito Methodist Church on the corner of 32nd and Grand Blvd.  Audition times are by appointment only.


LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER began in Madison, Wisconsin last year as the brilliant concept of stay-at-home-humorist Ann Imig.  The Spokane show is directed and produced by local moms, writers and bloggers Stacey Conner and Elise Raimi.

All ages, types, backgrounds and experience-level writers are invited to audition.  LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER is a community-oriented celebration of the beauty, the heartbreak, the trials and triumphs that is MOTHERHOOD.  No previous stage experience is necessary.  Bring your own original, humorous, poignant, painful, joyful and soulful words on mothering.  Previously published work accepted as long as the author retains full rights or has express permission to read the work for this event.

Commitment for cast members includes two group read-throughs in April and a pre-performance run-through at the Lair Auditorium prior to the show.

To schedule an audition time for Saturday, February 26, please email listentoyourmotherspokane@gmail.com. Include your name and your availability on February 26 for an appointment.  (Please also email us with questions or if you are in need of encouragement!)

We would love to listen to your words.  Come and audition and help us to create a new Spokane Mother’s Day tradition.
