See it if You're looking for a witty smart sharp fast paced show. Thought this was not going to appeal to me as a gay man but I loved it. Very fun!

Don't see it if You hated your mother or are into misogyny. This is definitely told from the woman's point of view...you know...the right one!

NY Theatre Guide

"As I sat down in a full auditorium buzzing with opening night fever, I felt that I had walked into a truly joyful environment...She had me at 'hello!' I was rocking in my seat as my laughter bounced me backwards and forwards...I never felt for a moment that she was delivering a script. The stories poured out of her with such ease and believability I felt like I had known her all my life. She wasn’t playing for laughs, it was just that everything she said was drenched in truth."

"'One Funny Mother' is definitely not for kids. It is, however, a great show for a Girls Night out...The show is neither a strict stand-up routine nor a story with a plot. It is a cross between both...Any mother can relate to at least some of what Blizzard talks about. Any father can relate to at least some of what Blizzard talks about too...At a running time of approximately 80 minutes, the show is just long enough without being too long."

"I cannot think of the last time I laughed this hard and much and felt validated...No topic is off-limits...Even the non-scripted part of the show was a hoot...Blizzard is a cool, relatable gal who you’d want in your inner mom circle...Anyone who IS a mom, HAS a mom, or is MARRIED to a mom will enjoy this show. It’s a fab girls night out, date night or mom bonding experience."

"Dena Blizzard takes audiences on a cathartic journey through parenthood...Blizzard gives a manic performance that is completely genuine...Her comedy is witty and truthful, and her presentation of it makes the night feel like a conversation between friends...It’s impossible to see this performance and not leave lighter and happier, and with an invigorating understanding of what makes parenting one of the great joys of being human."

"I believe that I was giggling from the beginning of the show until the end. My face was sore from smiling so much. I may have even cried a few times from laughing so hard. And the rest of the audience was right there with me...Dena has the gift of finding humor in everything. Her stories are honest, everyday tales to which all moms can relate. But her timing and delivery are flawless."
