Mom!

Black Box Theatre
12600 Nicollet Ave. Burnsville

Whether it's keeping your cool with a tantruming toddler or psyching yourself up for a parent-teacher conference, motherhood is never dull -- and neither is new musical Mom! from playwright Judy Freed. Called "a fun, heartfelt, raunchy, unflinching look at the joys and complexities of modern motherhood" by the Minneapolis StarTribune, Mom! aims to celebrate all the twists and turns that come with raising kids with songs like "Hot Mama Blues" and "Gotta Do It All." Parents of all ages, and the children who love them, will appreciate this humorous and insightful look at what it really takes to be a Mom!
