Cry It Out @ As If Theatre Company (Kenmore)

When it comes to being a new parent, you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t. A comedy with dark edges that is brilliantly funny and painfully true, Cry It Out confronts the pressure to have it all when having it all is a giant lie. From the writer of Orange is the New Black, Shameless, and Maid, Cry It Out takes an honest look at the absurdities of being home with a baby, the power of friendship, the dilemma of going back to work, and the effect class has on parenthood in America. Written by Molly Smith Metzler, directed by Betsy Mugavero.
