The five star, award-winning show returns to Lawrence Batley Theatre for one night only!
Meet Daniel Valentine. He’s a strange boy. It’s Mother’s Day and he has returned to his family home to celebrate. He’s here to tell you his story. A story of a domineering mother, church trips, youth club discos and a transformative trip to the theatre to see a certain Yorkshire songstress that ultimately changes everything…
But do all stories have a happy ending?
Jesus, Jane, Mother & Me is a twisted coming-of-age story blending pitch black humour, heartache and Jane McDonald that explores family dynamics, who our idols are and just how hard life can be when you’re a little bit different.
Written and directed by our Associate Artist Philip Stokes, recognised by the British Library as a culturally important playwright of the 21st Century. In 2025, Philip's recent play Shellshocked had highly successful seasons at the Adelaide Fringe and Off-Broadway at 59E59 Theaters NYC, gaining huge critical acclaim.
Jesus, Jane, Mother & Me is presented by KETCHUP productions, Richard Jordan Productions and Lawrence Batley Theatre.
