"My Mama Monologues stories are meaty...like a smorgasbord...hot, cold,
milky, sweet, salty, sour, bitter, spicy..."

Pat Masumoto, My Mama Monologues playwright and originator, and her friends and family have been
exchanging stories about their mothers for years. They have boasted,
laughed hysterically, cried like babies, and expressed intense and mild frustrations...
and concerns of a lifetime, and of the last hour.
What powerful therapy!
Men, women and children from around the world have contributed raw, down-to-earth,
true stories about their mothers to create this unique theatrical production.

true stories about their mothers to create this unique theatrical production.
My Mama Monologues began as a staged reading held on Mother's Day weekend 2009.
The production included a diverse mix of 39 stories, submitted by the public, about one's own mother.
Stories were submitted from as far away as England, from places as remote as the Andes,
and about mamas born as long ago as 1897. Many stories were "oral history" at its best.
Selected stories are included in a play-reading premiering each Mother's Day on the island of Maui.
Other venues throughout Hawaii, the U.S. and elsewhere are also producing My Mama Monologues,
with new stories told each year on or around Mother's Day.
