Synopsis

Adrienne Kennedy relates her star-studded experience of moving to London and working on The Lennon Play: In His Own Write .

Her absolute astonishment at being thrust in among the rich and famous of the theater and film world is really refreshing and charming.

This is a great story, told in an interview-style conversation between a mother and son.

Press Reviews

"A nicely paced monologue."
— WhatsOnStage

"Unlike anything I’ve seen before."
— The Portsmouth News

"Mom, How Did You Meet The Beatles is like having your best friend round for a chat. A cup of tea was all that was missing."
— The Portsmouth News

"Touches on Adriennes’s common theme of individuality under attack...Alows us effortless access into Adrienne’s memory, which has been painted with a loving faithfulness that makes London into newly explored territory... The writing is impressively detailed and echoes with the same poetry of the prosaic that defines Adrienne’s best works."
— Talkin' Broadway
