Momma's Boy Stage Play

Any patient returning to the door of Doctor Sherman Wise for a second visit is a patient in need of much assistance! In his second stage play, Colm McCormack introduces us to married couple Kevin and Christine as they struggle through the American economic downturn of 2008 - 2012. Kevin, an immigrant who has followed his American wife back to the South, arrives armed with an MBA, a can-do attitude, big dreams and assurances of numerous high paying jobs. Upon meeting him, however, we learn he is two years unemployed and grappling to come to terms with a life far below any he might have wished for. Just when it seems things cannot get any worse, his mother arrives for a visit - bringing with her an unrepentant questioning of the American Dream and much of the wisdom upon which American life is built. A timeless story - with the characters of the highly suspect Sherman, the devastated and crumbling Kevin, the struggling Christine and the razor-sharp mother - Momma's Boy touches upon the deeply human, the dying of dreams and the fragility of hope.
