The Longer My Mother Is Dead the More I Like Her

In this deeply personal and universally relatable piece, Deborah Unger (Gotham, Orange Is The New Black) invites audiences into the lifelong battle and posthumous reconciliation with her mother. Blending humour and heartbreak, pathos and poignancy, Unger’s journey explores the unspoken dynamics of mother-daughter relationships. Mom gets to tell her side of the relationship as well, albeit from the grave, transforming the play into a moving meditation on love, understanding and letting go. 'A tender and joyful evening full of discovery and celebration' (TheFrontRowCenter.com).
