Love, Mum

Recommended by

  • Christopher Plumridge: Love, Mum

    LOVE, MUM is a truly heartfelt, painful, truthful and gritty monologue. Poor Jess is hit with the news we never want to hear from our loved ones, and just as you'd expect, she feels guilt at feeling so bad on hearing it. Emily has captured these emotions perfectly, it's uncomfortable reading, but so much love shines through nonetheless.
    An excellent monologue for an actor to test out their deepest emotions.
