About this event
Derek Sheen has always been known for his dark approach to comedy, but MotherL*ver finds Sheen exploring new territory, grief and hope.
It's a show about Sheen’s mother, Barbara Ellen. Their incredibly complicated relationship and how she taught him to reconcile his fear through humor...by basically exposing him to a tremendous amount of trauma. The show is a collection of insanely dark and hilarious stories wrapped around the concept of finding hope, in even the most hopeless of situations, through laughter.
“I often think about what I would change if given the opportunity to go back in time and it's never 'steal the sport's almanac' or 'stop Hitler'. It's always, 'convince Barbara to see a therapist when she's in her 30s' and 'make my stepfather's death look like an accident”
This show is best for audiences ages 18+
