MOTHER / SON

SOLOMON PRODUCTIONS (Jackson Heights, USA)

The IRISH PREMIERE of the Award Winning Comedy Drama MOTHER/SON sees Jeffrey Solomon triumph in this semi-autobiological tour-de-force.  His show may have been about a young Jewish man coming out, but the real thrust of the play - and what makes it such a memorable piece of drama - is its emphasis on how his mother coped with the situation.  In a series of brilliantly performed monologues, Solomon alternating between Bradley and his mother, Mandy, as they talked, sometimes argued - usually on long-distance phone calls - about his gay lifetsyle, his boyfriends, and her own feelings in coming to terms with his sexuality. Written and performed by Solomon, MOTHER/SON was inspired by his mother's support for him when he himself came out in 1990.  It is a finely wrought celebration of a mother's love for her son and the lengths she will go in order to stand up for him and against unthinking prejudice.  MOTHER /SON is a MUST SEE!  ***** 5 Stars from Scotsgay who wrote "Brilliant Comedy ... Packs an emotional punch that will knock you from here to the end of the festival ... I dare you to watch it and leave with dry eyes!"
