An evening of original songs and stories that will
make you laugh, cry and realize the power of YOU
and that is truly
A Touching Tribute to Moms Everywhere
Based on actual events ranging from being the last child in the country to be placed in a tuberculosis sanitarium at the age of 11, to being expelled from his catholic high school five years later for refusing to let a priest to sexually molest him, to being homeless, Stephen weaves his stories and original songs of never giving up with a sense of wit, humor and hope.
The play, a tribute to moms everywhere, was inspired by a song the author wrote for his mother called, "Only Mom", which he wrote after receiving a final letter from her. That letter, from a mother with whom he'd been estranged for years, helped him realize the sacrifices she (and all mothers) make for their children, and how she was so much more than 'only mom'.
Stephen often finds audiences wanting to call someone they love (and even ones they've been estranged from) after the show, just to say, "I love you".
