Like Mother, Like Daughter

Recommended by

  • James Hutchison: Like Mother, Like Daughter

    This is an excellent play about how we excuse or hide abusive behaviours made all the more relevant for today's audiences because of the #Me Too movement. Like Mother, Like Daughter is a smart thought-provoking play with escalating revelations that will leave your audience with plenty to talk about. A great mother daughter two-hander that’s easy to stage and would certainly be a memorable addition to any evening of short plays.
