Tired of woke politics taking center stage Why do we have to continually impart social issues into the plays? Especially in a Harry Potter play! All we want to do is to be entertained without being inundated with sexual or identity politics being pushed on us….

If you're looking for a light uplifting musical, don't see this play. My wife and I decided to see a serious drama this time around, and this play certainly didn't disappoint. All three actors were superb. The script had an excellent mix of emotional dialogue and sardonic humor. We are in our 70s so we saw the issues from the mother's point of view and in light ot the era of the play. Although we didn't agree with the mother's viewpoint, it was pretty typical of parents of that era. I've seen some reviewers who were disappointed in the ending, but we both thought it was perfect. Essentially, three lives being seriously damaged by the bitter experiences of the mother. We both came away thanking our lucky stars that our family experience has been the total opposite of what was portrayed in the play. A serious, thought provoking, drama superbly acted.

Great play and location near Times… Great play and location near Times Square. I felt some scenes were stiff or in one scene the female lead said she would send out a text to the male leads for help and this is never mentioned again. Afterwards I discovered it was due to some rewrites for sensitivity. I understand the need for these changes but it’s pretty apparent where these points are.

I found Mother Play very evocative I found this play very evocative. The acting was superb. The story was much more serious and intense than I expected. Some scenes brought tears to my eyes. I highly recommend this play. The seats, even in the mezzanine, are excellent for visual and audio ability. My only negative was that the seats are a bit cramped.
