Save the Date: New York City!
9 August 201, FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE
Save the Date!
Award-Winning One Woman Show coming to NYC United Solo Festival
Montreal-- The one-woman show that
enjoyed a holy trinity of successful runs, an even holier trinity of MECCA
nominations (Best Actress, Best Text and Revelation), an eventual win for Best
Text and Toronto’s Launchpad Award for Emerging Artists, is coming to New York
City in November to participate in the largest jury-run festival of
solo shows in the world!
8 Ways my Mother
was Conceived, written and performed by Michaela Di Cesare,
took Toronto and Montreal by storm and is now ready to put the old adage to the
test: If you can make it there, you’ll make it anywhere.
Or, as my mother puts it,
“Baby, just make it here and never go anywhere. Ever.”
My Catholic Italian family
believes my mother was conceived by a virgin. The logic being that my
grandparents were unmarried when it happened. Therefore: act of God, NOT of the
bod. A harmless myth – until I realized I suffered from a Virgin Complex that
was sabotaging my love life.
“Di Cesare is a wonderful
storyteller… Her characters are so well fleshed out that one feels almost like
a part of the family after seeing the play. She seamlessly transitions from her
adult self, to her mother, to a “bro” she dated, to her 8-year old self, each
played with consistent and easily-distinguished voices and mannerisms…a
remarkable snapshot of a distinctive slice of Montreal’s culture.”
