SUDS Presents: MY MUM DIED AND I WANNA SING ABOUT IT

By Jack Francis West

22nd-24th February 2021

The Cellar Theatre

7pm

SUDS $3 / ACCESS $5 / CONCESSION $7 / ADULT $12

This is Jack. His mum is dead. Let’s talk about it.

MY MUM DIED AND I WANNA SING ABOUT IT is a dumb, cringe, self-indulgent shit-show that was cheaper to write than going to therapy. Combining comedy, tragedy, and general stream of consciousness; it is an exploration of the realisations and experiences surrounding death, parents, and grief.

Featuring music from your favourite musical theatre and artists; this show is a combination of cabaret, stand-up, and a TED Talk about being gay, being stupid, and most importantly - being dead.

Because we don’t talk about it enough.
