Listen To Your Mother History
Listen To Your Mother (LTYM) began as a groundbreaking live performance series that premiered in 2010, focusing on the diverse narratives of motherhood. Created by Ann Imig, the series was inspired by the desire to give a platform to storytellers who wanted to share their experiences as mothers, daughters, and everything in between. The show takes selected writers from local communities, inviting them to share their heartfelt and often humorous essays on stage. After its inaugural event in Madison, Wisconsin, LTYM quickly expanded, with performances across multiple cities in the United States. The essence of the series lies in its blend of personal storytelling with theatrical presentation, allowing audiences to connect on a deeply emotional level and fostering a sense of shared experience among mothers. In 2014, the LTYM brand elevated its reach with a produced book, compiling stories from the performances, which further demonstrated the profound impact of these narratives. The annual series has touched countless lives, nurturing community connections and nurturing the art of storytelling within the theatre landscape.
