The critically acclaimed MY MAMA AND THE FULL-SCALE
INVASION by Sasha Denisova continues its world premiere in
Philadelphia’s Wilma Theater.
“Zelensky and Putin meet their match”- The
Washington Post
“An active social act’: the Ukrainian playwright paying
tribute to her mother on stage” - The Guardian

Sasha’s 82-year-old mother has lived in Kyiv her whole
life. When Russia invades Ukraine in 2022, Sasha copes with her
fears by imagining her mother in increasingly fantastical
situations: strategizing with President Zelenskyy, striking Russian
drones with jars of pickles, and even debating with God. Playwright
Sasha Denisova was inspired by her online chats with her mother to
write this darkly funny and deeply
heartfelt new play.
“My mother was born on the very day when the Germans were
bombing so, when I told her to go to the bomb shelter, the first
thing she said was: ‘I’m not going there. I was born there.’ That
gave the start to our ongoing fight because she didn’t let me come
and take her out and, as you will see in the play, this is a woman
of a strong character, as all Ukrainian women are.” - Sasha
Denisova, The Guardian
