Cry It Out

By Molly Smith Metzler

With little in common besides new babies and adjacent backyards, Jessie, a corporate lawyer, and Lina, a nurse, form an unlikely friendship over a series of naptime coffee breaks. But with the addition of their career oriented neighbor Adrienne, another new mom, the duo’s friendship and their individual conceptions of parenthood are put to the test. A candid comedy about parenthood.

Reviews & Press

“Director M. Bevin O’Gara’s production is warm, generous, funny, felt and at crucial moments very vulnerable. — Ithaca Times

“The kind of stigma-breaking theatre that audiences need more of. CRY IT OUT deeply affected me. Funny and meaningful.” - Broadway World

“Compelling…Full of surprises and profoundness. Those seeing the play will never look at the family leave issue in the same way again.”– Democrat & Chronicle
