MotherSON - First 8 mins of Solo play by Jeffrey Solomon

Jeffrey Solomon's semi-autobiographical solo play depicting a mother and son's evolving relationship as they navigate the coming out journey has been hailed by critics across the country as funny, poignant, powerful and tender. Mr. Solomon plays the dual roles of mother and son in a performance the Chicago Tribune calls "powerfully personal, yet universal as family values."

I helped bring Jeffrey and his play to Manila audiences for the 2005 ILGA conference and I so remember how haunting it was despite the comedy... it is my fervent wish to bring it back for more shows, and if I can't, I hope someone out there tour Mother Son in the whole East Asia!

Seeing Jeffrey's performance in MotherSon is something one will never forget: he's terrific! I've seen it in Manila and do agree with the previous comment: wish I could make him tour South America, especially in Brazil.

Have had the distinct honor of seeing the performance several times and it never looses it's power. Jeffrey Solomon is incredible in his ability to be true to the characters as he seamlessly channels his mother. If you haven't seen him look up his show and get there!! Bravo Mr. Solomon!!!
