“Both brave and funny, Exit Cuckoo deserves our attention.” Eve Ensler
What began as a simple conversation between two nannies in Central Park grew into Exit Cuckoo, a solo theater work about the complex mother-child-nanny relationship. Playwright and actor Lisa Ramirez tells the stories of the women she met and interviewed while working as a nanny herself. Exit Cuckoo offers a candid, humorous, and sometimes critical look at motherhood and childcare today. 

RUNNING TIME 2 hours
