      This show is bold, self-aware, and packed with big laughs, but at it's core it’s about one powerful truth: no matter how far you stray, stuff up, or grow up, there’s no love quite like your mum’s.

      It’s funny, it’s heartfelt, and it’s personal.

      I tell stories about growing up, about parenting, about the madness of family life but underneath all the laughs, it’s really a celebration of women and mothers. See, mums are the most under-valued people in our society. They do everything: cook, clean, hold the family together, raise the kids, work jobs, run errands—and they still don’t get the praise they deserve. The truth is, without mums, none of us would even be here… literally.
