here to read an interview with Arlene Malinowski!
When her Deaf mother gets cancer, a middle-aged
woman moves back into her childhood room with
two questions: “Where is God?” and “Who took
my KISS poster?!” Aiming for Sainthood (commissioned by 16th Street) is part two of
Malinowski’s trilogy beginning with What
Does the Sun Sound Like?, the totally true tales of a hearing daughter
growing up in a Deaf family and culture.
See both shows on Saturday July 12
& 19. Dinner packages available.
