I had the joy of viewing Puerperium and I was moved. It is a thoughtfully curated play which heaves on one’s humanity, all the while delivering a powerful message of the plights birth mothers face as they adapt through the physiological variations of their postpartum realities. I look forward to this year’s festival and the enchantment I now expect from OpenScene’s curators.
