Terrence McNally's Mothers and Sons at A Classic Theatre

A Classic Theatre will present Terrence McNally's Mothers and Sons at The St. Augustine Waterworks over the span of two weekends in May. Showtimes are at 7:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays — May 5 and 6  and May 12 and 13, 2023. On Sundays, May 7 and May 14, matinees will be presented at 2:00 p.m.

Twenty years after her son passed away from AIDS, Katherine remains trapped in time — stuck on the day he died. Soul searching lands her on his former lover's doorstep. Attempting to grasp the fact that Cal has a new life with a husband and child, she begins to see the world in the present day, as it has moved on without her. Peering out the window overlooking the city of New York and watching the changes that transpired — people, places, and things — not only is Katherine witnessing what the world has become, but through Cal and his partner, she simultaneously gets a glimpse of what her son Andre's life might have been. 

This production contains adult themes and language.

Admission: Tickets are $22 for general admission.

When:  7:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, May 5 and 6, and May 12 and 13, 2023; Sunday Matinees are 2: 00 p.m. on May 7 and 14, 2023.
