Amanda is having a sleepover* and she hopes that you’ll attend.

The Sleepover is Part 2 of a larger project. We started with the question: “What would it be like to have a sleepover with a younger version of yourself?”

In Part 1, we collected art & memories about female gatherings from folks all over the world and created an online exhibition.

These offerings inspired this original, devised piece of theatre and many appear in the production. Thank you to all who contributed!

This is the premiere production for Sisters Freehold. Catch up on who we are and why we’re here. (Hint: We love Baltimore.)
