The Green Room 42 will present Steffanie Leigh in "Matrescence: Becoming a Mother." Join Leigh (Mary Poppins, Gigi, War Paint) as she takes her audiences on a hilarious and heartwarming journey through her "matrescence," the-once-in-a-lifetime experience of becoming a mother. Through a blend of musical theatre, pop, and folk songs, Leigh explores a rollercoaster ride of emotions and experiences: from getting a positive pregnancy test in a hotel room in Australia to getting a positive COVID test in a hotel room in China; from prenatal vitamins to prenatal depression; from teaching her friends about "electric nipples" to learning about the "ring of fire" during labor. Featuring Alex "Goldie" Golden as music director and special guests Stephanie Park (Hamilton) and Mary Claire King (Chicago, Gun & Power). Plus, with Leigh deep into her third trimester... anything could happen! Get ready for an unforgettable evening of TMI, music, and budding maternal wisdom.

Steffanie Leigh's "Matrescense" plays at The Green Room 42 on May 19th. Tickets are available starting at $21, with no food or beverage minimum. Tickets and more information are available here.
