PHILLY WELCOMES BRAND NEW SHOW ˜DEAR MOM' A ˜Dramedy' Inspired by Actual Letters Written From Daughters to Their Mothers We are pleased to announce the premiere of DEAR MOM, a dramedy' inspired by actual letters written by daughters to their mothers. DEAR MOM tells the story of Linda, a 45 year-old woman faced with having to say goodbye to her mother Joan. Through the letters she is able to reflect on her relationship with her mother with candor and humor.
'DEAR MOM is a play about a mother and daughter that know exactly how to push each other's buttons, says Co-Creator Jay Falzone. "Amidst the funny and poignant letters, the heart of the play is in these two feisty women that argue, then make up, in humorous and touching ways.'
The DEAR MOM team is especially thrilled to be hosting a special matinee performance on Mother's Day, May 11th. In fact, some of the actual letter writers are traveling in for this special event, from as far as Hawaii.
Additionally, a portion of sales from the entire run of show will go to Breastcancer.org , a national nonprofit, locally based in Ardmore, that is recognized as the leader in providing the most reliable, complete and up-to-date information on breast cancer. To make the donation, ticket buyers can use promo code "MOM.?
After the Mother's Day matinee performance guests can stay for a reception to meet the actors, producers, directors, and letter writers as well as representatives from BreastCancer.org, who will be able to provide information on the impact of each donation. Light fare and mimosas will be provided.
DEAR MOM is playing at the Penn's Landing Playhouse in the Independence Seaport Museum, now through June 4th, located at 211 South Columbus Boulevard. Shows are on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings at 7pm with a special matinee performance at 2pm on May 11th, Mother's Day.
