A dark, empowering and very funny new musical about motherhood, madness and making art at the end of the world. 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 decent parent at the same time.It was made in Berlin and written and performed by Marie Hamilton with Fringe First winning director Hildegard Ryan, and 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.
