THE LONGER MY
MOTHER IS DEAD THE MORE I LIKE HER
Being in constant conflict with Mom is bad enough. But what if that hectoring voice also lives in your head?
Debbie’s been at odds with her Mom all her life. Pulled between “think for yourself” and “do it my way”, she chooses herself. That choice leads to a life-long (and post-death) battle with Mom, who is as stubborn as the daughter she birthed.
This solo play was developed in part through SaraSolo's THE SOLO, a writing/performance solo theatre intensive held in Sarasota.

4 participants from our Booker High School VPA solo theater development workshop
Ann Morrison and Blake Walton brought their solo performance workshop last fall semester to Sunny Smith’s level III theatre students as a means to find self-expression in writing and performing a personal story. Taking many forms including fictional narrative, monologue, stand-up, cabaret, dance and movement, and performance art, the 18 students wrote autobiographical plays or a fictionalized aspect of themselves. All of the pieces were presented in a final performance with an audience.

Spring Break
Jennifer and Christine have been best friends for longer than they can remember. For as long as they have lived, life was meant to be shared with each other. The bond has kept them together, pulling them all the way to college together. But, how long will they be tied together? Are the ties that bind fraying as life tugs them in opposite directions? On the drive back home for spring break, a road trip leads them on a surprising path to their future.
