JJB Productions

Legend of stage and screen Anna Carteret (Juliet Bravo and a humungous range of West End, National Theatre and Broadway productions) stars as Mammles in JJB Productions’ rare revival of Charles Dyer’s Mother Adam, a witty and strange insight into loneliness and co-dependency.

The whimsical world of a bed-ridden, arthritic mother and her sprightly son combines deft verbal comedy with buried emotions. Alongside Anna Carteret as the caustic Mammles, John Craggs plays her tragicomic son Adam.

This under-performed gem of a play welcomes you to the strange, eccentric, funny and often very moving world of these two oddballs, which sees them playing out their Sunday routine through conversation that gives you an insight into their unusual existence.
