Welcome to the modern world of parenting. This is my story of a loving parent whose 5-year-old, plays with boys, dresses like a boy, and now at age 8 is ready to commit to being a boy. It’s a journey of a parent trying to uncover the gender that fits my kid best, while navigating these uncharted waters with zero tools in my tool belt! This is a continuation of the original “TALES OF MODERN MOTHERHOOD”, focusing on the lunacy, fear, labelling and unconditional love, however, you do NOT have to have seen “part 1” to appreciate this NEW chapter. This is an extremely personal, funny, challenging, honest and hopeful story about the human condition.
Here's what REVIEWERS are saying:
"This show is exquisitely and artfully written and performed. After all, it’s when art is at its most personal that it can be its most powerful and transcendent. And you really can’t get much more personal than this. But that’s Pam Levin for you - open and brave and beautifully bold."

"This is yet another wonderful performance by the uber talented Levin...having watched the performance on a livestream made it all the more intimate, almost like a one on one monologue/conversation between viewer and actor. Levin tackles this very delicate question from a very personal place, her own family, her own daughter, her own tears and fears of the years ahead, in the most honest, beautiful yet theatrical way, mixing ‘mama drama’ with just the right dash of comedic levity. -Bonnie Priever

Here's what AUDIENCES are saying:
“Your work, your writing, your sharing, the experience of what your family has done together has blown me away, touched me, surprised me in wonderful ways, and sent me on a gamut of emotions… You’re a fantastic storyteller. Your heart shines in every moment and beams in all the right places. Just simply and truly, truly triumphant writing and performing.”
– Jonas Cohen (Veteran Actor)
“I’m not sure I have the words to say how deeply moved both me and my friend were by your performance. It encompassed so many powerful situations and caused such emotional response it’s hard to express all we felt. Suffice it to say we both feel it is one of the most important messages out here and should be heard by many more people!”
– Tena Bunnell (Voiceover Artist)
“Her raw honesty in her storytelling combined with her mesmerizing performance skills left me absolutely consumed with the most wonderful theater experience I’ve had in a very long time. I was brought to tears, I was belly laughing, and I was filled with heartfelt love & joy. Sharing her family experience with the gender & identity issue is also very important for the world to hear. I Honestly can’t wait to see it again!"
