25 Questions for a Jewish Mother is a hilarious and touching monologue. The show is inspired by interviews with Jewish women of all ages, ethnicities and occupations, spread throughout the United States.
From family ghosts and Holocaust memories to chicken soup and Barbra Streisand, their answers to each question are testament to just what makes a Jewish mother unique. Blending together more than 50 women's voices, this is a fiercely funny and brave portrait of modern motherhood. 25 Questions for a Jewish Mother is the perfect evening for mothers and daughters of any faith.
25 Questions for a Jewish Mother was written by playwright Kate Moira Ryan and Emmy award-winning comedienne Judy Gold, who also starred in the piece during its sell-out premiere in January 2006. The show was nominated for a 2006 Drama Desk Award ('Outstanding Solo Performance').
