B.I.R.T.H. (Bringing Information and Resources to Houston) presents BIRTH: The True Stories of Eight Women Giving Birth Today.

Birth, a play by writer and childbirth advocate Karen Brody, captures the truth about our childbirth crisis today: that it is failing most low-risk pregnant women. The play, performed as part of a global activist theatre movement known as BOLD, uncovers the secret lives of low-risk women in labor as they confront coercion in hospitals and uncover "my body rocks" strategies for obtaining a powerful birth experience.

Through the stories of eight women the audience begins to understand the truth behind how low-risk women are giving birth today.
