_Memoirs of the Sistahood ? Chapter One_ is a unique multimedia
performance featuring the works of sisters Babette Beaullieu, a New
Orleans-based sculptor, and Becky Beaullieu Valls, a
performer/choreographer in Houston.

_Memoirs_ focuses on the female archetypes of 1950s Louisiana and the
six Beaullieu sisters (Beth, Becky, Babette, Bonnie, Bitsy, and
Barbara), while building upon themes of women, family, home and the
sisters? Catholic upbringing in South Louisiana.

Using dance, original music, film and sculptures constructed from
windows, doors and other found objects salvaged from New Orleans
streets after Hurricane Katrina, _Memoirs_ is an intriguing work of
visual storytelling.
