Mum's In is written and performed by Vashti Hughes.
It tells the stories of Kate Leigh, Tilly Devine, Frank Green, Nellie Cameron and Guido Caletti. Blood is spilled right from the start with the death of Guido Caletti followed by the preparation for the funeral and wake. The fighting between Tilly and Kate continues!
If you have been watching Underbelly Razor you will already know the characters and the stories very well.
Vashti gives the show a powerful performance and encourages the audience to join in. Vashti plays all the characters which does prove she is a talented performer and writer; though song writing I would say is not her strongest skill. From the audience point of view I would have preferred maybe one other actor and a few more props and costume, the odd hat (there was one in the second half) and feather boa would have done. Perhaps I missed the point, but the venue and all the staff looked superb. After the show the bar was raided which was an excellent end.
Many of the audience were in costume and for something fun to do with a few friends it would be a great night out.
