Wild Abandon – 2015 New Ground Theatre Festival

Lynn is a sweet church lady who advocates the healing power of Jesus and vegetables. According to her daughter Leenya, she’s also “a sitcom character cast in a Greek tragedy.” Though Leenya means “Little Lynn,” and both women are artists, the two couldn’t be more different—or so they think. Using Lynn’s artwork and Leenya’s original songs this quirky, autobiographical one-woman musical examines the most universal and complicated of human relationships: the bond between mother and daughter. Get a first look at this new piece written and performed by Leenya Rideout, who can also currently be seen as Molly Flemmingsen in Fairfield!
