SECRETS OF A SOCCER MOM

A New Play by Kathleen Clark
Directed by Judith Ivey

In critically acclaimed “Secrets of a Soccer Mom”, three women leave their traditional spot on the sidelines to play in the annual mother-son soccer game. This ordinary day becomes extraordinary as the competition ignites their fierce desire to recapture their spirit, humor and passion. “Secrets of a Soccer Mom” takes a look at a part of life that is rarely explored on stage. It speaks to everyone, no matter age or gender, in attempting to answer that age old question: how in the world did I wind up here?

Free Play Date On NY Kids Club

Last Friday, my family went to a really fun "blogger" play date at the 68th street NY Kids Club.  There was a wide variety of fun things for the kids to do including the trampoline, free play, circle time, dancing, the balance beam and more.  The kids had a blast.  (My husband and the only other man there kept commenting on the floor - it was really nice and springy.  We need that flooring at home!) 
Anyway,  NY Kids Club is opening the event up to you (not just bloggers this time) this Friday at their 67th Street location in Manhattan. The event will take place January 18th, 2008 from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM at 219 East 67th Street.
