TheatreWorks Community Players Presents ‘night, Mother

August 27, 2025

TheatreWorks Community Players invite you to experience ‘night, Mother — the Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Marsha Norman that has captivated audiences with its raw, honest portrayal of family, mental health, and the search for meaning.

The story unfolds in real time as Thelma, a mother, and Jessie, her daughter, share a deeply personal evening that changes both of their lives forever. Jessie, who suffers from epilepsy and long-term depression, reveals her plans for suicide. What follows is an unflinching and emotional dialogue between mother and daughter — a conversation that brings suppressed family truths to light and forces both women to confront pain, love, and loss.

Thought-provoking and emotionally charged, ‘night, Mother offers audiences a powerful look into the complexities of the mother-daughter bond and the difficult realities surrounding mental health. This production will challenge, move, and inspire conversation long after the final curtain falls.

🎭 Rated PG-13 for mature themes.
