Project Overview

Join us for a stimulating theater presentation and discussion led by local actresses and teaching artists Ansa Akyea and Maria Asp. They will read two scenes in Small Mouth Sounds written by Bess Wohl, followed by a discussion of the themes, tying in current events, personal values and narratives. Filled with awkward and insightful humor, Small Mouth Sounds is a unique and compassionate new play that asks how we address life's biggest questions when words fail us.
