SUMMARY:The Mother
DESCRIPTION:Cincinnati\, Ohio based Chicana performance artist Claudia Pompeya is reaching the culmination of a three year effort as she premieres her first solo alternative clown show\, THE MOTHER\, at Asian Arts Initiative (1219 Vine Street\, Philadelphia)\, running for a limited engagement September 13 through 15\, 2025. The piece\, which examines the ‘maternal’ archetype via absurd and playful chaos\, is part of the Cannonball Festival 2025 lineup\, a Philadelphia Fringe Festival hub\, dedicated to risk-taking independent art and community conversation. Opening night for press is Sunday\, September 14 at 3:30 pm. \nClaudia Pompeya\, writer and performer of THE MOTHER says: “So many of us carry a buried grief we can’t quite name. THE MOTHER meets that pain with humor\, chaos\, and care. Five years ago at FringeArts’ Blue Heaven\, I was electrified by the alt comedy and clown I saw there. To now bring my own dreamlike work here feels both unreal and deeply honoring\, this is where audiences expect the unexpected.” \nA strange solo clown show written and performed by multi-hyphen performance artist Claudia Pompeya\, THE MOTHER\, via absurdist clowning and audience interaction\, veils a fierce love for those never truly mothered. It creates a playful space for people to feel seen and safe enough to laugh at their own parental wounds. \nTickets to THE MOTHER are currently on sale by visiting https://phillyfringe.org/events/the-mother/. General admission is $25; pay-what-you-can tickets start at $5. More information on Claudia Pompeya can be found at claudiapompoms.com\, and via Instagram at https://instagram.com/claudiapompoms.
