This new play will be presented as a reading. Readings are an essential part of the play development process. We are proud to offer this as part of our On The Radar (OTR) New Works Program that aims to support the creation of diverse new stories by emerging U.S. playwrights. Welcome to Cool Beans Coffee! It’s a rainy Mother’s Day in Astoria, NY, and despite the weather, Cool Beans Coffee, home to the greatest coffee in Queens, is bustling with customers excited about the holiday — all except for their favorite barista, Marco, whose relationship with his mother has soured since his dad passed away. As we meet the various, quirky personalities, from the sweet old lady who just wants to have a conversation at the register to the office intern on the verge of a nervous breakdown, they all try their best to convince Marco to make amends and call his mother on Mother’s Day. Call Your Mother navigates the difficult journey of grief and the empathy and respect that we deserve during that journey, all through an indie/folk score within the charming and eccentric lifestyle of coffee culture. 2024 OTR Reading Series Sponsors The Capital Group Companies Charitable Foundation National Endowment for the Arts Jennifer Ruckman & Ken Favell
