Mama Never Told Me That
by Giselle Lemire
February 7– March 17,1991
Meet Edna, a funny, passionate, vibrant and very busy woman. She has come to her urban rooftop, to hang out the laundry. For the first time in her life she has decided to really “clean up”, and “air out” the family laundry. While digging through her last load, she discovers that some of it is not so clean after all. A hilarious, sometimes moving musical adventure into the deepest darkest depths of the laundry basket, and the secrets it may hold. Presented in partnership with le Theatre du Coyote (English language premiere). Performed as a part of the 1991 Repertory Festival.
