Margaret Cho
Margaret Cho’s all new standup show, Mother, offers up an untraditional look at motherhood and how we look at maternal figures and strong women. It’s probably her edgiest show to date, filled with riotous observations on race, drugs, sexuality - gay-straight-everything in between, celebrity, culture, politics - nothing is sacred - least of all this Mother – “the fearless stand up queen.” (VenusZine). Mature content.
