'night, Mother at Some Theatre COmpany

Jessie Cates packs her belongings into bags intended for donation to charity. She's doing so because, as she tells her mother, Thelma, she plans to kill herself that very evening. This profound piece of theatre centers on the interactions between an elderly woman and her daughter, whose depression has pushed her to the brink of suicide. As Jessie steels herself for her last act, Thelma gallantly encourages her to opt for life.
