Mother/SON

Thursday, March 18 at 7pm

Presented by the Silver Center

No one comes out alone.  This one-act play portrays the hilarious and poignant relationship between a Jewish mother and her gay son.  The play is based on the conversations that writer/actor Jeffrey Solomon had with his mother and follows the woman's struggles to accept her son's homosexuality and to come out to herself as the mother of a gay man.  Solomon does double duty as both Mindy and Brad, mother and son.  He's performed the play in New York, London, Provincetown and Chicago earning praise for his moving writing and portrayals.  Solomon is an Emmy nominated television writer who's penned children's shows and comedies for Jim Henson, Fox, Nickelodeon and the Children's Television Workshop.

This production contains mature language and subject matter. Watch a portion of the play at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLbG1xN-rsU
