About Missa Mama Nova

MISSA MAMA NOVA is a deconstructed performance with dance and vocals about femininity. A dancer (a Mother's body) writhes in and out of the sacred cliché and normative prison of the Woman-as-Mother. A choir of six sons (six Queer Kings) swarms around her and sings itself in and out of a classical song idiom. In the absence of the Father, the singers deconstruct the patriarchal heritage of the Christian liturgy and search for their adult voice. A flautist on the sidelines (a Mother’s breath) breathes and controls the polyphonic body of performers. Together the ensemble breaks open the silent grief of the holy Mother Mary and transforms it into a celebration of the feminine in every one of us.
