Mom’s the Word takes the stage

A comedy and variety show is coming to Theatre Northwest starting tonight (Thursday).

Mom’s the Word is about women sharing their personal confessions about the chaos and absurdity of motherhood.

Director Deborah Williams said that she hopes this show gives people an opportunity to laugh at themselves, noting that parenting issues weren’t often talked about.

“People talk a little bit more about what it’s like to be a parent, but it still holds for some reason. People just want to be let off the hook, right? You just want to know that other parents are struggling just as much as you are. And we all are, we’re all just sort of screwing it up as we go along.”

She added that there is dancing and singing involved, even some tears, noting that this is kind of like a day in the life of a parent.

“I think the key is to have a chance to laugh, because it is ludicrous. And the fact that you’re in charge all alone and isolated in these domestic cubicles of hell I like to call them.”

The show will run until May 4th.
