About Abby Goldfarb
Most of My Moms Are Gay is a musical comedy by Abby Goldfarb, performed at Sprout Studio at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Abby is the daughter of five mothers, mostly lesbians, and her immaculate-conception-adjacent origin story has always defined her identity. When your conception is iconic, you become the mystery — cue identity crisis. The show weaves together gay divorce, coming out as straight, OCD, Jewishness and career heartache. Rather than go to therapy, Abby wrote this musical. The show runs for 50 minutes and carries an age guidance of 16+.
Why see this show?
A sharp, self-aware musical that turns an unusual upbringing into genuinely funny material. Abby Goldfarb has a story worth telling and the wit to tell it well — a warm, candid fifty minutes about identity, family and the comedy that comes from both.
