Synopsis
I Remember Mama
Published by Dramatists Play Service
Large Mixed Cast
One of the most heartwarming studies of American family life to reach the stage and a great favorite with Community theatres
Scenes from the life of the Hanson family are told with style and affection in this celebrated drama
It shows how Mama, with the help of her husband and Uncle Chris, brings up the children in their modest San Francisco home during the early years of the century
Mama, a sweet and capable manager, sees her children through childhood, manages to educate them and to see one of her daughters begin her career as a writer
Mama's sisters and uncle furnish a rich background for a great deal of comedy and a little incidental tragedy, while the doings of the children manage to keep everyone in pleasant turmoil
But no description can do justice to the rich characterizations that fill the author's canvas
