The Woman in the Mirror is a true story of a mother and daughter navigating the realities of caregiving, performed by Blue Squirrel Productions and Suzanna Rosenthal Productions. When Dayna's mother receives a life-changing diagnosis, she writes a Facebook post and wakes to hundreds of responses, realising she is not alone. The play follows the ups, downs, hilarity and heartbreak shared with her cyber support network. Running 70 minutes and suitable for ages 12 and over, it contains strong language and potentially distressing themes.
Why see this show?
A fearlessly honest, bitingly witty and unexpectedly uplifting piece of theatre about one of the most universal of human experiences. If caregiving has touched your life, this love letter to carers will resonate long after the final scene.
