Mommy Issues

April 14, 2025 By Brandon@TheBirdKC.com

A variety show for anyone who’s ever had a mother… Or is a momma… Or knows a mom… or has opinions about motherhood… That’s you!

WAIT, moms are just human beings? Shocking… we know! Whether you and the person you call mom are BFFs, barely speak or you commonly tell people “it’s complicated,” we got you. Come laugh (until you cry) at the absurdities of motherhood and the special ways our Birth, Adoptive, Play or Anyone we call Mom show up and also mess us up!

Grab your mom, your dad, your aunt, your grandma, your cousin, your friend, your ex – SOMEBODY – and join us for a memorable evening with exceptional talent. You’ll see some new faces joining our ensemble this year, along with fresh sketches and songs to help you cope through the Mother’s Day season.

Empanadas, salsa, cookies and other goodies will be on sale for your enjoyment!

Produced by Irene Manning and Jessie Turner
