Kicking Out the Jams

"Oh, mama, they're kicking out the jams at Playwrights Theatre in Madison.

Harvested from the fertile grounds of a workshop production in the 2009 FringeNYC festival (where it was voted Outstanding Musical), Playwrights has transplanted the one-of-a-kind "MoM A Rock Concert Musical" to where it belongs: the suburbs.

In between, we get memorable songs of rebellion and celebration, sadness and uncertainty. Numbers like "Why Can't He Take Care of the Kids for a Change?" will make you laugh, while the dramatic "Don't Hold Back" speaks to the core of this story, which encourages us to follow our own dreams, come what may."
