The Marsh is Pleased to Announce a Marsh Rising Workshop Performance of Lisa Ramirez’ Exit Cuckoo (Nanny in Motherland)
Inspired by her work as a nanny in Manhattan, Ramirez gives us a glimpse into the lives of different women, both nannies and mothers, as she takes us into their homes and sits us on park benches with them. The play guarantees that the viewer will never look at "that woman" with the stroller the same way again.

Inspired by her work as a nanny in Manhattan, Ramirez gives us a glimpse into the lives of different women, both nannies and mothers, as she takes us into their homes and sits us on park benches with them.
