About the play: SYNOPSIS: Set in 2014 in Toronto this comedy opens at the home of Holly, a self-help writer and single-mom to teenager Jodi. Holly’s morning is interrupted when Pam shows up, unannounced. Having found a letter from Jodi to her teenage son, Evan, Pam deems the letter inappropriate and is eager to discuss matters. What starts a pleasant enough visit between two moms meeting for the first time, quickly becomes a complicated bizarre and hilarious roller-coaster ride of mis-understandings as Holly soon realizes Pam has no idea what’s actually going on between their kids. The mess and confusion of this precarious situation launches into orbit with the arrival of Holly’s outrageous and filter-less best friend, Cheryl. One lie leads to another and another, and another as Holly and Cheryl do everything in their power to try to keep Pam in the dark. Little does either of them know, Pam may not actually be the head-burying ostrich they think she is… Additional information: Sunday, Dec 8, evening 6:30-9 – Call backs.
