Television comedy icon Cindy Williams returns to Meadow Brook Theatre to star in the heartwarming comedy "Mom's Gift." Williams plays Peggy Swenson, a mom on a mission. She's showed up to her husband's birthday party, which is slightly strange since she's been dead for 11 months. Just like that famous angel, Clarence, in "It's a Wonderful Life," Peggy needs to accomplish a special task to earn her wings. If she only knew exactly what that special task was. There are just so many things to fix! Can she get them all done before time runs out?

"Mom's Gift," written by Phil Olson, runs January 4 through January 29, 2017, at Meadow Brook Theatre on the campus of Oakland University in Rochester. BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at Williams and co-star Dani Cochrane in character below!

Cindy Williams, best known as Shirley Feeney from the classic, television sitcom "Laverne and Shirley," has had a distinguished career in TV and film. "Mom's Gift" marks her fourth visit to Meadow Brook Theatre.
