My Mother’s Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding Musical $25 tickets
The musical that originally debuted at the Fringe Festival in 2009, garnering rave reviews from theatre critics, it’s based on a true and eventually picked up by Mirvish Productions. You can now see the show for $25 on Tuesdays and Sundays.
Here’s the excerpt from their website:
MY MOTHER’S LESBIAN JEWISH WICCAN WEDDING tells the story of a mother and son. The mother feels lost in life, wrestling with her identity. A new job brings new opportunities and with it a chance to truly find herself … discovering her sexuality, rediscovering her faith, and eventually coming out to her teenage son, ex-husband and homophobic Jewish mother.
MY MOTHER’S LESBIAN JEWISH WICCAN WEDDING features sensational songs that run the gamut from heartfelt (“If You Love Me”) to hilarious (“You Don’t Need a Penis” and “Don’t Take Your Lesbian Moms to Hooters”), to educational (“A Short History of Gay Marriage in Canada”).
MY MOTHER’S LESBIAN JEWISH WICCAN WEDDING is based on a true story. David Hein wrote the title song as a gift to his mother about her real life wedding. Convinced the story of his mother’s journey would make a good theatrical work, David and his wife, Irene Carl Sankoff, stitched together the stories that everyone asks them to tell: what life is like with two moms, including the seven parents at their wedding; the “facts of life” talk that Irene received from her in-laws; and how David’s mom first came out to him.
The show runs until March 21 at the Panasonic Theatre. You can order tickets online from the My Mother’s Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding website or you can order by phone at 416-872-1212 or 1-800-461-3333.
