Change takes courage…

The Sparks of Change…

We believe that the arts hold the extraordinary ability to stir emotions, challenge perspectives, and ignite conversations on the most pressing and challenging issues of our time. This is where the sparks of change can ignite, acting as a catalyst for positive social change. The Hairy Godmothers are committed to promoting conversations on hard topics, seeking a shared understanding of our humanity through storytelling. We address these hard topics with boldness and inclusivity, creating a safe and fun platform to have some tough but necessary conversations around life, death, identity, diversity and everything in-between.

Performance Provides a Platform for:

- Engagement: Live performances capture hearts and minds. They immerse audiences in stories, emotions, and experiences, creating a deep and lasting impact.

- Start Conversations: Our performances tackle tough issues head-on, sparking dialogues that lead to greater awareness, empathy, and social change.

- Creating Safe Spaces: Our performances are a safe space for audiences to process complex emotions and experiences, providing a vital step toward healing and understanding.

-Inspiration: Witnessing real people on stage grapple with real-world challenges can promote empathy and understanding of self and others, inspiring individuals to become proactive agents of change.
