Elina de Santos directs this new comedy by Jennie Webb about mothers and daughters. Set in a discount clothing store's communal dressing room, the play finds a group of women on a shopping trip looking in a full-length mirror and catching sight of their own mothers. With an absurdist edge, the sometimes-ruthless journey throws light on the stuff we all accumulate as we move through life.

This play is an uncomfortable combination of realism and absurdism: the absurdism is sporadic, not integrated, and adds nothing of substance to the show. It also has little plot or character development, and the characters themselves are only mildly engaging. The Scattered Woman and The Only Man were the most grounded and at ease, so as the show progressed, they kept me sane.

If you liked Alan Ball's "Five Women Wearing the Same Dress" at the Ruby Theatre in Hollywood, then you'll probably like this too. If you didn't, you're risking disappointment.

Strange play. Were it went was unexpected, but surprising and fun. Really enjoyed all of the performances. One of the better plays I've seen lately.

Description

A comedy about mothers and daughters and other things that imply some sort of responsibility, Yard Sale Signs is set in unmistakably female terrain: a discount clothing store’s communal dressing room. Yet on this shopping trip, the characters find themselves examining much more than their fashion choices.

Because on this particular day, battling the force of full-length mirrors, the women who have been brought together are compelled to look beyond their reflections and projections. Perhaps they catch sight of something they never wanted to see staring back at them: their own mothers.

With an absurdist edge, the sometimes-ruthless journey throws light on the stuff we all accumulate as we move through life, and the rather circuitous paths we follow to convince ourselves we’re rid of it.

Directed by Elina de Santos, the play features Ann Bronston, Corryn Cummins, Maia Danziger, Jaxon Duff Gwillim, Hollace Starr, Jennifer Taub and Inger Tudor.
