The Play About Mother

Perfect Instagram mothers, self-help books, and "My William only wears Hummel". Ugh! Children are a gift, but motherhood can be hard to navigate - and we stay silent, because what if someone heard us.

THE PERFORMANCE ABOUT MOTHER explores the ideals, dilemmas, and taboos of motherhood. Three mothers step into the spotlight and open the door to a confession room that lays bare the all-consuming, the beautiful, and the insane aspects of being a mother - honestly and experimentally.
