Original title
My mother is a HUMAN. Me too – Eigen Werk Theaterteam
What you need to know
- Spoken and sung in Dutch, so it works best for kids who follow Dutch comfortably
- Pitched at secondary-school age, an evening out for a teen and a parent rather than a family matinee
- A heavy subject, told lightly, a good way into talking about illness and caring at home
About
"Mijn moeder is een MENS. Ik ook" follows Babs, a cheerful girl who helps look after her chronically ill mother with her sister. What starts as vacuuming slowly becomes real care, though to Babs it is simply helping her mom. Eigen Werk Theaterteam tells it lightly, with songs, and based it on actress Sabrina NaberMacnack's own childhood. Spoken in Dutch, it suits teens and parents more than young kids.
