The Ticking Clock Project

The Ticking Clock is a theatrical project exploring the choices women make during their childbearing years—and, on occasion, the choices that are made for them. After interviewing women from a wide range of different backgrounds and experiences, Jody Gehrman will write a script made up primarily of monologues, and Rose Bell will direct the play’s debut.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED

This is a grassroots endeavor, so we need your help. There are several ways you can contribute to making this project a reality:

• Interview women about their choices and experiences (see below)

• Be interviewed about your own experiences (see below)

• Read early drafts of the script and provide feedback. (contact jodygehrman@gmail.com)

• Help with the miscellaneous administrative and organizational tasks as they arise. (contact divarose1@hotmail.com)

THE INTERVIEW PROCESS:

If you’re interested in interviewing women or being interviewed, here’s how it works:

• Send an e-mail to thetickingclock@gmail.com with “interview volunteer” in the subject line.

• Explain in your e-mail whether you want to conduct interviews, be interviewed, or both.

• If you plan to conduct interviews, we will send you the seven interview questions and an explanation of how to record your interview, then e-mail it to us as an audio file.

• If you would like to be interviewed, we’ll forward your e-mail to one of our interviewers who will contact you to arrange a meeting.
