Lynne Collinson, WomensWork's Creative Director says, “Last Lists of My Mad Mother, ticks all the boxes for the type of play WomensWork wants to explore:  a well written script, meaningful material, and a story told from a woman's point-of-view that features women over the age of 40 – an underserved on-stage demographic. The play takes us on an emotional journey of discovery that's ultimately simple, true, and relevant for anyone who has been a caregiver or watched the decline of a loved one.

WomensWork Theatre Collaborative opens its Season of Madness on October 26 with LAST LISTS OF MY MAD MOTHER, by Julie Jensen, a poignant and poetic look at how a primary caregiver struggles to hold on to her humor and humanity as her mother's mind rapidly deteriorates, and as her sister phones in advice from afar.

WomensWork Theatre Collaborative will present a trio of plays about madness in 2019-2020, the Collaborative's first full season of programming. 

In the great tradition of innovative and inspiring Epic productions of classics such as 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof' and 'The Little Foxes,' Epic Theatre Company is beginning a brand new year with a fresh look at an undisputed masterpiece--Federico Garcia Lorca's 'The House of Bernarda Alba' in an acclaimed new adaptation by Emily Mann, with direction by Carol Schlink, and featuring Michelle L. Walker as Bernarda.

Juliet was traditionally played by a boy. A man played Medea. For centuries, women have been consigned to play lesser parts in the creation and production of theater. And even as progress is being made, gender and age parity, onstage and off, continues to be a major issue in the theater.

There's a ton of dysfunctional family dramadies in contemporary theatre right now, and even on local stages competing against each other - but nothing is like Epic Theatre Company's latest production, "Tribes."
