Here at WHWS, a topic close to our hearts (and breasts!) is mothering – it’s not quite like the instruction book said it would be!

So when we looked at the FRINGE WORLD programme and saw Crying Over Spilt Milk, a show by Darwin comedian Amy Hetherington about the joy, pain and madness of parenting – we thought “Let’s go and support a sister!”

The show is an hour of comedy about sleep deprivation, weird advice from strangers, sore nipples, crying over spilt milk and the other trials of parenting. This show for new parents, would-be parents and never-would-I-ever parents. You can see why we thought it was perfect for us to see, right? And for the icing on the cake, half of Amy’s family live in Gosnells!

And Amy is kindly supporting the Gosnells community back with this show and has set aside some tickets for us for her 5 February show, with part proceeds being a fundraiser for WHWS. Thank you so much, Amy!

So clear your diaries for 11am on Sunday, 13 February to head to Kalamunda. It’s a nice early show so you don’t have to worry too much about late nights or babysitters. In fact, Amy isn’t worrying about a babysitter either and she’ll have her newly minted Plus1 with her on stage. Tickets are $25 (inc booking fees).

And if you can’t make it on this date then the rest of the run of this show will be in Perth city in Yagan Square at The Laugh Resort & Shoe Bar.
