The play tells the story of Christie, a homeless woman in a world detached, unforgiving and destructive. The play gives voice to the fallen and dispossessed, to those who exist at the edge of safety, at the point of being undone. It speaks of madness, denial, ignorance and free-falling poverty. Utterly devastating, yet written with Daniel Keene’s characteristic lyricism, Mother is wrought with tenderness, violence, and loneliness in equal measure.
Mother will make its North American premiere in 2024 starting on the west coast then making its way to New York City.
“Noni Hazlehurst shines in this one-woman play about homelessness. Hazlehurst had the role by the throat…”
