NEW - MOTHERS AND SONS - Talkin' Broadway's Review

Posted by:	T.B._Admin. 08:00 pm EDT 03/24/14

Matthew Murray takes a look at Mothers and Sons: That the deepest grief never entirely abates, but rather is internalized and transformed into something less definable (and usually more debilitating), is central to Terrence McNally's Mothers and Sons, which just opened at the Golden. A mother and a gay man, who respectively lost her son and his partner (both the same person, named Andre) to AIDS 20 years earlier, aren't aware of how much they haven't moved on, even though time has nonetheless progressed. McNally's exploration of this concern is total and compelling, even if the work containing it is not quite. . . .
