Questions My Mother Can't Answer will also include Grammy Award-winning sound designer Marcelo Caban is back with her sold-out 2010 FringeNYC hit. She's on a mind-body-soul healing mission after being hit by a New York City cab. She interviews eight "mothers-of-a-certain-age" including a sexy Moroccan ballroom dancer, a donations-only prostitute, and her Aunt Shirley. Hoping to redefine "navigating life" and to interpret the ticks of her biological clock, Andrea looks for guidance from a variety of female role models, only to find that there are no role models...that we are all flawed and life isn't about avoiding accidents, or tragedy, but how we deal with it.
Questions My Mother Can't Answer will run at 9th Space (located at Performance Space 122, 150 1st Ave at 9th Street) with performances on Sat 5/21 @ 4pm, Sun 5/22 @ 6pm, Mon 5/23 @ 8pm, Wed 5/ 25 @ 8pm & Fri 5/27 @ 8pm. Tickets are $20 and may be purchased online at www.9thspace.org or by calling 212-352-3101. For more information and to see clips from the play, you may visit: www.QuestionsMyMotherCantAnswer.com
