July 18: Mother Knows Best

With apologies to my own mother, and asking forgiveness of my own daughter... I put this show together because I love these songs so much, and because I'm about to be in Spring Awakening at Lake City Playhouse. We open next Thursday, please come. PLAYLIST (the not-so-pretty version)
