FAQ's & WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN
AUDTIONING FOR LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER:
WHO CAN AUDITION?
We welcome absolutely everyone! Our show has featured both men and women of all backgrounds and ages. We are inclusive and we are happy to accommodate your needs.
WHO WILL BE AUDITIONING ME?
The LTYMR Production Team: Monica, Corrie, Raquel, & Erin. We're all compassionate, patient, open-minded, sensitive, and grateful women who will probably want to give you a hug (especially if you need one) after you read for us.
We host auditions in a judgement-free space. We have tissues, water, and mints for you. We want to make you as comfortable as possible--after all, we know that you've worked hard to write down your story.
WHAT KIND OF STORY CAN I BRING TO READ?
A memory. A tribute. A story about that time you were so frustrated/ proud/ nervous/ terrified/ ecstatic/ forlorn/ hopeful. About that time you wish you had... or hadn't.... About the worst thing you ever said to your mom/kid. About the best advice you ever heard. About that time that has stuck with you for years; the first time you.... Stories about the wonders, joys, worries, and woes of Motherhood--in all its glory and messiness. Your story just needs to be TRUE. (And about five minutes long.)
Our show has featured regular storytelling and narrative poetry.
The best stories are relatable, accessible, and well-edited.
