Kay Kemp’s Dream a Little Dream of Me explores the complicated, wry, and messy relationship between Colleen and Priscilla, a daughter and mother. Tensions rise as Colleen is forced to take care of her ailing mother and as the memories – and people – of the past, the present, and the play itself are no longer what the duo recalls. As a play, Dream a Little Dream of Me engages with intergenerational memory and trauma, and it is a work that asks the audience to ponder: Who would we be without our trauma? What is the difference between one’s love for someone and one’s obligation to someone? What would truly happen if your dreams become your reality?
