Due to popular demand, The Marsh San Francisco has announced the second extension of GRANDMA & ME: An Ode to Single Parents, which has been performed to sold out crowds by award-winning playwright and actor Brian Copeland (Not a Genuine Black Man, The Waiting Period, The Scion, The Jewelry Box) for nearly every showing. For the past month, Copeland’s newest work has captivated Bay Area theatregoers, with critics calling it a “beautiful tribute” (Theater Dogs) that “hits that sweet spot between funny and moving” (BroadwayWorld). Says Theatrius, “Copeland’s reservoirs of talent and empathy make him a unique, unforgettable artist. A must see.” Filled with Copeland’s trademark style of wit, laughter, and tears, GRANDMA & ME: An Ode to Single Parents examines the issues of single parenting and asks what it truly means to be a father. San Francisco Chronicle notes, “Solo performer Brian Copeland... is fearless with introspection, acute with observation, deadly with wit and compassionate with his audiences,” while San Francisco Examiner adds, “If you are or have a single parent in your life, you need to see this show.” This work is dedicated to the memory of Copeland’s grandmother, Lena Mae Arbee.
