In 1972, there was no Betty Ford Clinic. When the prescription drug-addicted, single mother of an upper-middle class Jewish family in suburban Baltimore finally hits rock-bottom, it falls on her children to take control. Inspired by true events, this fictionalized, autobiographical tragicomedy by multiple award-winning playwright Garry Michael Kluger is an affectionate portrait of four siblings who arm themselves with fierce tenacity, good humor, and their love for one another to save their mother — and themselves. Sept. 8–Oct. 8: Fridays at 8 p.m., Saturdays at 8 p.m., Sundays at 2 p.m. Theatre West, 3333 Cahuenga Blvd. West, Los Angeles, CA 90068 (across the street from Universal CityWalk, between Barham and Lankershim); $30-$40; (323) 851-7977; www.TheatreWest.org
