SUMMARY:A Maternal Exorcism
DESCRIPTION:The US premiere of A Maternal Exorcism to be staged in Nashville and L.A.\nZoe Lambert performs her award-winning solo show at 7pm on Saturday 27th of June 2026 at The Filming Station\, 501 8th Ave S\, Nashville\, Tn 37203.\nThen she takes her show to L.A. where you can see a second performance on Wednesday 8th July 2026. 7.30pm at The Fanatic Salon\, 3815 Sawtelle Blvd\, Los Angeles\, CA 90066\nTickets free/donate on the door. Reservations call 615-400-5620. \nAt 41\, Zoe Lambert is not an alcoholic. Just emotionally dependent on cheap whisky. Reeling from her mother’s death\, she unpicks a life’s work as a carer and her strict religious upbringing as a Jehovah’s Witness\, which she swore she had left behind. \nBoth hilarious and heart-breaking\, A Maternal Exorcism sheds light on the lingering impact of coercive control and religious trauma in a high control group.\n“A passionate and gripping piece of theatre” Lancashire Post (UK). \nZoe says\, “How do you write a love letter to your dead mother when all you want is to shout at her? This show is for anyone who has experienced the confusion of conditional love or coercive control. Or wondered what life is like for the JW who knocks on your door”. \n \nAdapted from her memoir in progress\, A Maternal Exorcism premiered in Montreal in 2025 before winning the UK 2025 Bay Fringe Festival’s award for ‘Best Local Theatre’. \nZoe Lambert is a writer and lecturer at Lancaster University (UK). Her short stories have been widely published in the UK\, including her collection\, The War Tour (Comma Press). Brought up as a Jehovah’s Witness\, she is now a board member of the International Cultic Studies Association. \nThe show is brought to the US by Ken Bernstein of CK Productions who just earned his masters in the Psychology of Coercive Control at The University of Salford\, and premiered Steve Earle’s Karla\, Jeremy Child’s Vampire Monologues\, and Bruce Arnston’s The Doyle and Debbie Show and Petrie. \nPlease note this performance is educational. Tickets are free/donation to cover costs only. Reservations 615-400-5620
