Celebrate the 18th anniversary of Anabella Lenzu/DanceDrama with the premiere of the 20-minute dance film Listen to Your Mother and an intimate performance by the artists. 
Listen to Your Mother is a choreographic research project dedicated to the lives of women-identifying artists who are immigrant mothers living in New York City. The project seeks to capture these underrepresented women's stories to inspire dialogue, appreciation, and social support instead of the ongoing prejudice endured that is historically placed against mothers and women in the arts.
