Night, Mother at the National Theater

“Night, Mother,” the 1983 Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Marsha Norman, will be performed at the Sala Ravelo of the National Theater starting Thursday, 10 May 2018. Maria Castillo is director and one of the two actresses.

The play is about a mother Mama and her daughter, Jessie, who announces that she is about to commit suicide. The subsequent dialogue between Jessie and Mama slowly reveals her reasons for her decision, her life with Mama, and how thoroughly she has planned her own death, culminating in a disturbing, yet unavoidable climax.

The play won the 1983 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and was nominated for the Tony Award for Best Play.

Tickets are for sale at the National Theater box office.
