MOM’S THE WORD: TALKIN’ TURKEY
An Arts Club Theatre Company Presentation
Created by the Mom’s the Word Collective (Jill Daum, Alison Kelly, Robin Nichol, Barabar Pollard & Deborah Williams)
ABOUT THE SHOW
The moms are back in the creative kitchen and ready to turn the “season of giving” into the “season of forgiving.” Enjoy a theatrical feast flavoured with big Santa belly laughs, stuffed with dysfunction, and topped with a soupçon of sarcasm—all served on a platter of naked truth. Using their special recipe of raw humour and humanity, the moms prove that the holidays really are about family, however you define it. The Mom’s the Word Collective are members of the Playwright’s Guild of Canada.
Mom’s the Word: Talkin’ Turkey was commissioned by the Arts Club Theatre Company, Vancouver, British Columbia and received its world premier at the Arts Club Theatre Company’s Granville Island Stage in October 2022.Produced by permission of the Playwright and Marquis Literary (Colin Rivers) www.MQlit.ca
