Inspired by true events, Momma Won’t Die is a wickedly funny Southern dark comedy about three generations of women navigating death, dysfunction and long-buried family secrets as their 108-year-old matriarch refuses to let go. Filled with sharp humor, heartfelt moments and eccentric small-town characters, the world premiere production is written by Dallas playwrights Patty Pell and Laurie Grigsby and directed by acclaimed playwright and filmmaker Del Shores. Presented by Clark, Pell & King Productions.
The show runs June 12-28, 2026. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. with Sunday matinees at 2:30 p.m. Runtime is approximately two hours, including intermission. Tickets are $38 and available at www.mommawontdie.com.
