La madre que me parió

A comedy starring Marisol Ayuso, Eva Barceló and Olga Hueso, which sets its tangle of complications at a wedding: the bride doubts her decision in the middle of the banquet and the mothers of the family are dragged into the conflict. It is staged at the Teatro Lara in Madrid.

La madre que me parió is a comedy that begins at a wedding that has turned into a small-scale chaos. In the middle of the banquet, the bride regrets having married and turns to her friends to get out of the situation and live as she truly wants. The mothers, who are also guests, are not prepared to stay on the sidelines of what is happening.

The plot moves forward through secrets coming to light and crossed reproaches, and puts the relationship between mothers and daughters on the table: complicated, but marked by a mutual defence that holds even when they disagree. The humour comes from the clash between women who are very different from one another and from situations that any family can recognise.

Marisol Ayuso, Eva Barceló and Olga Hueso bring these mothers to life, portrayed as both typical and utterly dissimilar. The conflict is resolved partly thanks to some outside help, and the show is staged at the Teatro Lara in Madrid as a comedy for adult audiences who want to laugh at a family story full of entanglements.
