About this show

The Girls Who Made Us is a tribute to the women who shaped us. After the loss of Auntie Jane, five girls discover a box of memories revealing how Jane met each of their mothers and the lifelong bonds they formed. Through multi-rolling, the performers bring to life their mothers' journeys and how they lend themselves to resilience, sacrifice and identity. As past and present intertwine, the girls confront what it means to grow up as women today. This heartfelt play celebrates survival, friendship and the quiet victories that define who we become.
