‘night, Mother, a Pulitzer Prize-winning American play from the 1980s begins with a daughter, Jessie, telling her mother, Thelma, that she plans to commit suicide that evening. The rest of the story slowly reveals Jessie’s reasons, what her life with her mother had been like, and how she has planned her death. The local staging, directed by Pat Gui, features Sukania Venugopal and Anitha Abd Hamid as the mother and daughter respectively. We review the play.
