Three Mothers Résumé

Three Mothers: Three women, two children, one story. Matilda Velevitch

Three women, two children, one story. Set in present day Senegal, Bavaria and post WW2 Sudentenland, Three Mothers immerses the audience in the personal stories and dilemmas of its characters. The story follows them as they attempt to make difficult decisions that will change their lives forever. Enforced migration and refugee status are the backdrop to this inspiring, uplifting and intertwined story spanning a time-frame of 60 years, of women's determination to carry on and create a new life. When KHADY's husband dies, she is forced to sell his goats. Sending her eldest son away from Senegal across desert and sea to Europe, in the hope that he will find a better life, she plunges her entire family into uncertainty. When GISELA's life in England is turned upside down, she goes home to Bavaria seeking comfort and familiarity. But her attempts to assist the steady flow of refugees arriving in her childhood village soon awaken memories from her own past. After being expelled from Sudetenland in 1945, ERIKA reveals the truth about the journey made on foot with her baby daughter. The bold choices made by these three mothers are brought together in one compelling narrative in this play.
