From 20-time 'Best Of The Fest' winning performer Mike Delamont and Dirk Van Stralen, the critically acclaimed director of Jakes Gift, comes a heart-breaking, funny and endearing true story of addiction, music, and love. Mama's Boy is the intimate and beautiful tale of a young boy being raised by a single mother struggling with an alcohol addiction her entire life, and told through the eyes of one of Canada’s most popular comedians.
Widely known by the fringe-stage persona and creator/star of the hit comedy God Is A Scottish Drag Queen trilogy, Victoria’s Mike Delamont offers the wrenchingly revealing story of his relationship with his mother. Delamont was adopted as a baby. His adoptive father died when he was seven, leaving him in the sole custody of a mom who, little by little, lost herself to alcoholism over the course of Delamont’s younger years.
