Now, their real, complicated story of all the ups and downs that occur throughout an open adoption process is coming to the stage in the production of \u201cMy Real Mother\u201d at the New York Musical Festival.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">An adaptation of a bestselling book the mothers wrote in conjunction with the daughter, the festival is an opportunity to present the musical to prospective producers and other industry professionals who can take the work to the next step for a wider audience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ESW-ESW BodyText Subhead\">The adoption<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">In 1991, Summit County local Tina Zimmermann had to decide whether to keep her child \u2014 long before the thought of sharing her life with the public entered her mind. The then 26-year-old barber living on the West Coast wanted to be a mother but couldn\u2019t afford to.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">So Zimmermann, born in Germany to a German mother and American father, picked Marlene Wagener, then 45, to be the mother partly because she listed German as a spoken language on her adoption profile. But that wasn\u2019t the only commonality that brought them together. Both had lost their mothers when they were young, and both had previous short marriages. Wagener had a hysterectomy after having three children from a separate marriage, but her new husband wanted a child he could call his own.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">There were some reservations once Mollie Mish, who Zimmermann wanted to be named Emily, was born. But the adoption went through, and Zimmermann and Wagener started new chapters in their lives as they became only a postage stamp or phone call away.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ESW-ESW BodyText Subhead\">The book<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Zimmermann and Wagener kept in touch throughout the years by sending each other letters and filling pages in journals, which transformed into a book about themselves and the adoption to be given to Mish for her 18th birthday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cIt talks about not only how Marlene and I meet, but also when we\u2019re waiting for Mollie to arrive and all the insecurities she felt,\u201d said Zimmermann, who is now 54, lives in Blue River and has two more biological daughters. \u201cSo when she was honest, I had to be honest. I couldn\u2019t just say, \u2018Oh, my life is great.\u2019 It was hard and tough. \u2026 Marlene is an extremely amazing woman to open her heart as much as she did. I didn\u2019t know what I was giving up until I had the baby in my arms; I had no clue. But she knew what I was giving up because she had three biological children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Mish didn\u2019t read it until she was 20, and it wasn\u2019t until friends of Wagener convinced her to turn the journal into a memoir that they pursued publication.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">When Mish was 26 \u2014 the same age as Zimmermann when she placed her daughter in adoption \u2014 she added her own perspective in the epilogue. The book, called \u201cOpen: An Adoption Story in Three Voices,\u201d was completed Feb. 14, 2017, the same holiday on which Zimmermann and Wagener first met, and released later in May.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Names were changed for privacy reasons, and the book has sold about 58,000 copies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cEvery adoption is as unique as the people involved,\u201d Zimmermann said. \u201cThere is never one story that\u2019s the same with an open adoption. We got lucky, very lucky, that we had the relationship that we had.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Yet, at least at the beginning, it wasn\u2019t always a pleasant relationship.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cWe put a lot of our underwear out there,\u201d Zimmermann said. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t a wonderful, fantastic, happily-ever-after story. It was very hard and sad for me. It wasn\u2019t a happy time in my life at all. But it was very healing to write, and I knew my daughter was going to read this one day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cI forced their hand a lot,\u201d she said, referencing a time she threatened to take Mish back, which lead to a contract including visits and correspondence. \u201cI don\u2019t think I could heal without seeing her and how great her life was. It would have been a lot harder for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The adoption is finalized only about halfway through the book, meaning much of the story is left to be told. For instance, it goes on to describe how the Wageners struggled blending their family with the older children feeling ignored.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Those complex issues resonated with writer Riley Thomas, who is adapting it into the musical.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Special Sections-ESW-ESW BodyText Subhead\">The musical<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Fate blessed Zimmermann when Thomas walked through the doors of her Timberline Barber Shop in September 2017. He was in Breckenridge for the film festival promoting his musical movie \u201cStuck,\u201d staring Ashanti and Giancarlo Esposito, and he needed a quick haircut before an event. As Thomas sat in the chair with his own adoptive mother beside him, Zimmermann told the story about writing and releasing \u201cOpen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">He read it on the plane back to New York City and knew he had to make it a stage production \u2014 and given his background, a musical, to be precise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cWhat\u2019s going on in the book is mythic and so beautiful and so sweepingly emotional that one of the best ways to capture that kind of feeling is with music,\u201d Thomas said. \u201cIn a straight play, you lose a little bit of that magic because what makes a straight play interesting is different from what makes a musical interesting. The huge emotions that they\u2019re dealing with in the book I felt absolutely required music.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">After a brief workshop at Carthage College in Wisconsin in February, \u201cMy Real Mother\u201d is in rehearsals for its \u201cdraft two\u201d premiere Tuesday, July 30. Zimmermann and Wagener haven\u2019t had any creative control over the musical nor have the actors reached out to their real-life counterparts, but in a sense, that\u2019s not necessary since all the information is right in the book.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cWe\u2019ve been given the best source material an actor could ever ask for,\u201d said Katie LaMark, who plays the book version of Zimmermann, Alex Porter. LaMark recently was in the \u201cRENT\u201d and \u201cRock of Ages\u201d national anniversary tours. \u201cIt\u2019s someone\u2019s diary. We\u2019ve literally been handed someone\u2019s inner monologue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The cast also is careful to note that they\u2019re respectfully portraying written characters, rather than impersonating people. Elena Shaddow \u2014 who plays Alaina O\u2019Connell, aka Wagener \u2014 was Anna Leonowens in a national tour of \u201cThe King and I\u201d but has never been in the role of someone currently living.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cI want to be very careful to not try to impersonate or use too much of her real life goings-on in this theatrical recreation of the story,\u201d Shaddow said. \u201cWhen it comes to theater \u2026 it\u2019s going to take on a different feel, and it\u2019s a different story that we\u2019re telling by virtue of the script that Riley wrote.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Thomas, meanwhile, hasn\u2019t had to take many artistic liberties and mainly stayed true to the source material.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cThat\u2019s one of the things that attracted me to it,\u201d Thomas said. \u201cI didn\u2019t really need to invent any drama to make it work on stage. The choices and events in these women\u2019s lives were very theatrical. They were filled with conflict; they were filled with drama; they were filled with choices.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Of the roughly 20 contemporary songs, audiences are bound to enjoy \u201cMother of My Child,\u201d the ensemble-favorite showstopper. Thomas\u2019 style has been compared to Jeanine Tesori of \u201cFun Home\u201d and Jason Robert Brown of \u201cThe Bridges of Madison County,\u201d and this powerful duet showcases the tense moment when Alaina and Alex first meet at the adoption agency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Yet the crew believes the main draw will be the women-centric cast and the unique adoption story rarely seen in popular culture.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cThis is an opportunity to really tell the story and really show what it\u2019s like,\u201d said Rachel Hirschfeld, who narrates and plays Mish\/Sara. \u201cAnd I want to really honor that and the people who do choose to adopt, people who have been adopted. I just want to represent it correctly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Likewise, director Misti B. Wills\u2019 mother was adopted, and she hopes to do right by the story. \u201cBecause it\u2019s about open adoption, it\u2019s fairly new subject matter to be explored from a musical theater perspective. \u2026 I feel a kinship with what this story is about, a little deeper than what other directors might find themselves connected to the material.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Even if the festival doesn\u2019t immediately lead to a larger production, Thomas isn\u2019t worried.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cIt has the good combination of timelessness and timeliness that really makes musicals successful,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re not putting this into a drawer after the festival is over. There\u2019s too many people interested in the subject matter and too many people that it speaks to that don\u2019t have anything representing them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cI\u2019m psyched,\u201d said Zimmermann, who is making the trip to New York and has never been to the East Coast before. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to see it. It would be great if it can come to Colorado, as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.summitdaily.com\/explore-summit\/from-birth-to-broadway-the-story-of-how-a-mother-placing-her-daughter-in-adoption-became-a-musical\/?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Summit Daily<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The musical &#8220;My Real Mother&#8221; premieres Tuesday, July 30, at the New York Musical Festival.
