A dark, empowering and very funny two fingers to parental guilt. With songs inspired by Madonna, Peaches and Nina Simone.As a child, Marina had dreams. But now she has a child of her own, should she throw them in the nappy bin? Or follow them and risk becoming that nightmarish monster: The Narcissist Mother.Madonna on the Rocks is a beautiful, hilarious and very moving neon-lit exorcism in a jazz bar. Its about our egos, our responsibilities and our dreams. And the struggle to be an artist, or to have any sort of career at all really, and be a reasonably present parent at the same time.Written and performed by Marie Hamilton with Fringe First winning director Hildegard Ryan, and Berlin-based, Cameron Mackintosh Award winning composer Ben Osborn.Somewhere between a musical, a cabaret, a comedy and a tragedy, it will make you question your prejudices, remember to call your mum, and fight for a fairer future for us all.
