Let’s say you have a friend, and that friend has a friend, and that friend of a friend does not have any pet allergies, and then let’s then say that you have just read ‘Night, Mother’ by Marsha Norman for the two hundredth time and you are now inspired to write a two person show of your own. For yourself and Mike Hamilton. And a few adorable guinea pigs. And one spectacular flare gun. Seriously, let’s say that. Call it Mike Mother.
Exploring the tension between fiction and non-fiction, Jessica Anne’s Mike Mother weaves theatre, writing and film into the lies that cripple memories, the truth that haunts our tales, and all the gaps in between.
