Theatre Y proudly presents the world premiere of "I Killed My Mother," by András Visky, directed by Karin Coonrod.
Bernadette, a Romanian teenage girl abandoned after birth by her mother, a Roma (Gypsy) woman, grows up in a series of Romanian orphanages. She forges a relationship with her soul-mate Clip who teaches her how to excise parasitic relationships, to "kill" or turn her back forever, even on the maternal bond, in order to realize her own extraordinary identity.
