Tuesday 11th to Saturday 15th March @ 8.00pm
Pauline O’Driscoll Productions presents
Seven Ages of Mam
Fresh from a SELL OUT run at The Civic in Tallaght, Cork Arts Theatre is delighted to host this laugh-out-loud funny yet poignant one woman show that has garnered rave reviews, and was nominated BEST NEW PLAY at Brighton Fringe Festival in 2019.
A contemporary reimagining of Shakespeare’s most famous soliloquy – but from a Mam’s point of view! Her hilarious take on motherhood, sexuality, grief, infidelity, ageing, love, lust and loneliness.
Starring Pauline O’Driscoll (The Tourist, The Dry, Borderline, Smalltown, The Young Offenders) and directed by Tom Kibbe.
“MUST SEE SHOW wondrously inventive exploration of motherhood, grief, lust, heartbreak and joy… hilariously detailed….consummately acted…. wholly believable. What O’Driscoll is master of is pause and sudden tangent. The surprise monologue, the hilariously detailed aside, the squirm of embarrassment, and the language of love and forgiveness and letting go. The most original riff on the Seven Ages I’ve seen, and so beautifully subsumed you might not notice it at all … See it.” – Simon Jenner, FringeReview
Albeit a female centric piece about what it means to be a woman and a mother, Seven Ages of MAM resonates with anyone who is a mam, knows a mam or ever had a mam…. in other words everyone!
