Priscilla's response to Saving Mom

Affirmations:
I think the story you’re trying to tell is interesting and meaningful, and I respond to it every time we read it (even though you are constantly making radical changes). I think you are writing about a very touching and complex situation with no easy answers – which may be why you are finding so many facets of story and character that need exploring. In the earlier drafts, I didn’t understand why this was “Finding Mom”, as it really didn’t seem her story; however, I think you knew all along that it was. As you’ve made changes, it becomes more and more clear that Mom is truly the focal point in all of the other character’s lives and is the machine driving the play.

Questions:
I still have questions or confusion about Sunshine’s role in the play – maybe because I haven’t seen her take her own journey yet (although the homeless guy can certainly be part of that.)

I’m wondering if the scenes in the church are gone or might be coming back. Maybe I just liked them because they were so proactive on the daughters' parts.

I’m still wondering if the preacher and Mom had a sexual affair – and maybe that’s your intention. I don’t think that I even really need to know, but I am curious.

Opinions:
Just one – don’t let McDonald’s hijack your play.
