Event

Love, Loss and What I Wore

A funny, compelling, bring down the house kind of play! but [the play] is not a comedy! So funny and so powerful; so dear and sweet; so remindful of our female wiles, our worries, our insecurities, our remembrances of mother, father, sisters, brothers, lovers.

Love, Loss and What I Wore follows fragmented stories about the nostalgic power of women's clothing; A story about black cowboy boots becomes a sad tale of being under-appreciated in a relationship; a tale of two women shopping for their wedding outfits ends bitter sweetly; and the recollection of a new bra is a quiet testament to a women's search for dignity while undergoing treatment for breast cancer.

An cast of five amazing women tell funny, wistful and universal memories about their families and loved ones through the prism of their closets.

It is like a long heart-to-heart with your best friend over coffee, the conversation meanders from a bittersweet story of a stepmother wearing the same style bathrobe as her husband's late wife (to the dismay of the children) to a couple's musings of what they wore on their wedding day to a rant about loathing the need to carry a purse. With odes to black clothing, cowboy boots and outfits that makes mothers cringe, Love, Loss and What I Wore is unabashedly girlyin a good way.

SHOULD I SEE IT?

Is Love, Loss and What I Wore Good for Kids?

A good choice for a special mother-daughter event, Love, Loss and What I Wore is appropriate for teens. Younger children will not be interested in the material any more than they would want to listen in on a catch-up conversation with your old college roommate.

On the other hand, there is nothing offensive in the show, so if your children are interested, by all means bring them!
