"For your mother's sake" (Be-IMA- shelah) is A Dance-Theatre Journey into the "Wonderland of Motherhood"

“For Your Mother’s Sake” is a dance-theatre piece exploring the “Wonderland of Motherhood” in our day’s life. It is a comic and intimate portrait of a young mother navigating into the totalizing experience of motherhood, constantly reinventing herself at every moment.
Kelly breaks the silence and shares with us what was never told to her, never revealed, or shown to her about being a mother.
It’s a world that is at once magical, funny, absurd, exhausting, and endlessly loving.
