Running at the Space Annexe at theSpace at Symposium Hall, Mothers tells a story of what it means to be a mother from both a mother and daughter's perspective.
We hear voiceovers from interviews with actual mothers who are known to the cast and crew, each spurning on different scenes that cover everything from a first period to an unexpected death.
I appreciated the fact that the show doesn't paint mothers as completely without fault. It digs down deep into the complex relationships daughters can have with their mothers, how mothers can sometimes fail to see their child as anything other than their child. Sometimes, they refuse to acknowledge the fact that their child is their own individual person with their own thoughts and belief systems.
The show, however, is overall very sweet and warm. Showing love and connection in this bond that will have its strong and weak moments but, more often than not, will always be there.
I cried heavily (I'm talking deep sobbing as opposed to some delicate few tears and sniffling) during this show, but it's worth the tears at 10:35 in the morning.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Has there been any show that really moved you? Let us know in the comments so that we can all have a fantastic fringe!
Love,
