You can’t make an omelet without shattering a few cherished family illusions… especially when your family won’t let go of their idyllic memories of pre-Revolutionary Cuba.
It’s 29 years after Sonia’s fairy tale wedding in Havana, and now it’s her turn to be the Mother of the Bride. But her husband has left her for a younger woman, her son is perpetually high, and her daughter just wants to be American. In Broken Eggs, composer Jacinta Clusellas teams up with legendary Cuban playwright Eduardo Machado to adapt his 1984 hit play into a new musical about love, loss, and learning to let go.
