We’ve been receiving some wonderful love for the moms of Mom’s The Word: Remixed. From Vancouver media and audience members, to fans in grocery stores and restaurants, the Moms and their gut-wrenching and hilarious stories and performances have definitely struck a chord. We’ve also got a great trailer to give you an idea of what all of the excitement is about!

“This show is a must see for all moms” —Cathy Piso, Kids Vancouver
“A fantastic roller coaster ride that left me wanting more” –Sarah Loewen, Yoyobelly

Audience reviews:
“Fantastic! So true, I laughed hard and understood all three shows: Mom’s the Word (saw it in Duncan, B.C years ago), Mom’s the Word 2: Unhinged (Granville Island), Mom’s the Word: Remixed (Granville Island). I took my oldest daughter to the last two shows and she related to the moms as a teen and early 20′s person. I would recommend that any and all people see the play because it’s about everyday life with kids from a humorous point of view. Loved it I can’t wait until they do another one, maybe as Grandmas, who knows” —Carolyn
“Absolutely loved it. I was either laughing or crying the whole performance. The cast is amazing! What a fantastic performance!” —Sarah
“LOVED LOVED LOVED THE PLAY… seen them ALL!!! I cannot wait for the next progression of comedy which I am hopeful will be about ‘menopause’!!
These woman have brought real life to the stage – thank you for allowing us to share in it together!” —Anne, Surrey
“A superb performance by all 5 women! Absolutely hilarious! I laughed all the way through!!! A must see for everyone!” —Debbie, Vancouver
“A must see!!! Every aspect of the show is brilliant.” —Natalie
“Absolutely loved it! It’s hilarious. Should be required viewing for expecting mothers. Every mother can relate in some way. Even my husband thought it was great!!” — Janniene, Langley
“It was wonderful. We loved the acting, the laughs and the moments that touched our hearts. We will have no problem spreading the “word” – hope to see it again when the show hits Vernon, BC.” —Kelly, Vernon
“I went to see Remixed with a group of friends with whom I had seen the original! Our children were in preschool or older at the time and now we are parents of high school graduates or older. I cannot tell you how much we enjoyed this production. We all had such a good time and would like to thank the cast for sharing these stories with us.” —Sincerely, a group of women who go by “The Moxie Moms”, Aldona, New Westminster
“I have not enjoyed a night out as much as this in a long time! I am going to bring my husband back and let all my friends know how great a production this is. The cast was funny and the delivery was a perfect mix of hysterical and touching. Thank-you so much!”—Cari, North Vancouver
“Every rebirth of “Mom’s the Word” is an excellent exploration of motherhood issues and angst that makes me laugh and cry as I relive my own moments of joy and frustration. The best part about this show is the collective realization by all the mothers in the audience that they are not alone, and all parents share the same challenges, triumphs and screw ups. Laughed out loud, again and again.”—Sandra, Vancouver
“A fantastic light hearted event that, if you have children, is so relevant and on the mark. we laughed, had sympathy, and overall enjoyed ourselves. Bravo!!”— Mitch and Katarzyna, Abbotsford
