Mother Play
The bonds of love are tested in this expansive yet intimate drama rich with humour and wit, starring film, theatre and television legend Sigrid Thornton and directed by Lee Lewis. The play's 2024 Broadway production earned four Tony nominations and won two Drama Desk Awards and an Outer Critics Circle Award.
Careening through the 20th century – from the Muzak-drenched 1960s through the sexual revolution, disco era and New Age movements that followed – Mother Play charts the personal upheavals of one family trying to find a place for themselves amid the slings and arrows of a changing world.
