About the show
So Happy I Could Scream! is a musical revue celebrating the
transformative experience of motherhood. Touching,
humorous, and thought-provoking, it transports the audience
to a bewildering world of love, relationships, discipline,
gender roles, career paths, sex, family planning, and facing
the empty nest. Featuring an upbeat mix of contemporary
song styles, monologues and scenes,
So Happy I Could Scream!
will appeal to anyone who is a mother -- or has one.
