Are you a young mother starved for physical affection who enjoys theater and is maybe interested in becoming a producer? Well, if you are ANY of these things, you will have a great night out attending a reading of 85 Broads member Anna Fishbeyn’s play Sex in Mommyville.

Sex in Mommyville is a feminist comedy about a neurotic, guilt-ridden, career-longing, sex-starved Manhattan mom trying to please her high-maintenance children, her lawyer-husband Zeus, and her Russian parents who live upstairs. Against the backdrop of quarrelsome Muses, failed sex attempts, encounters with moms baring their lives on talk shows and a flock of MILFs, Sex in Mommyville is a fearless portrayal of modern motherhood and devastating commentary on the state of feminism today.
