Photo Flash: Merrimack Repertory Theatre Presents CRY IT OUT

Merrimack Repertory Theatre's production of Molly Smith Metzler's Cry It Out, directed by Amanda Charlton, an insightful comedy about the absurdities of being a new mom, continues through May 19 at the Nancy L. Donahue Theatre at Liberty Hall.

A whip-smart tale from Metzler (Orange Is the New Black, Shameless), Cry It Out captures the belly laughs, frustrations, and secret confidences that come with the early days of parenthood. The comedy throws two very different women into an unlikely, but fierce, friendship.

On maternity leave for the first time, Jessie and Lina tiptoe to their shared backyard for a precious coffee and a chat during naptime. This play takes an honest look at the absurdities of being home with a baby, the dilemma of returning to work, and how class impacts parenthood and friendship.
