Next show: Wednesday, Jan. 29 @ 7pm ET, at The Speakeasy at Capo Deli
Theme: “Beginners & Beginnings”
This January, with the new year in full swing, we’re celebrating stories on the theme of “Beginners and Beginnings". This could be a story about a birth (or rebirth), a commencement, a new journey, or any other time that just felt like a beginning. Whether it’s a moment of initiation, a new chapter in life or career, or first steps in a new direction, this show is all about celebrating the beauty of getting a fresh start.
Generation Women is a multigenerational storytelling series that invites a performer in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, and 70s+ to share an original true story on a theme. Our mission is to amplify underheard voices, and create space for intergenerational connection and community.

“Generation Women gave me a deeper appreciation for the shared human experience of women. Race, color, sexual orientation and faith did not separate us, in fact, our stories brought us closer together.
It was beautiful.”
