Mum's Vege Patch - Development Season
By Minnie Moo Productions
Written By Amalia Calder & Directed By Rachel Lenart
A profound slice of life.
Mum’s Vege Patch explores the relationship between three sisters, their Mum, and the things we grow inside us. Have we done enough weeding to sustain what we’ve planted?
A dark comedy about a funeral and literally losing Mum’s ashes. A powerhouse team of veteran creatives, bringing you a beautiful, funny and heartwarming story with a dash of sadness for good measure.
This is one not to be missed.
“This new Calder play is delivered with mystery, drama and a touch of poignant comedy.”
John Smythe, Theatreview (on a previous show by Minnie Moo Productions)
“The characters and their situations are real and believable making this a fascinating piece of theatre.”
