It's 9 p.m. and eighteen year-old
Katia's college application must be in the mail by midnight. Maggie,
Katia's adoptive mother, cajoles, charms, and presses her daughter
to complete the troublesome essay question, 'What's in your Memory
House?' while she bakes - on stage, from start to finish - a home-made
blueberry pie. This engaging comic-drama by prize-winning Milwaukee
native Kathleen Tolan will delight, move and inspire you as it
explores an utterly recognizable mother-daughter relationship
and examines the global ties that bind family to homeland to family.
"A captivating emotional
ballet that is also a moving demonstration of the strenuous work
that goes into good mothering." - The New York Times
