Welcome to motherhood: the gravity’s crushing, the breast pump’s relentless, and the only escape is orbit. In this critically-acclaimed solo performance, Jessica reimagines herself as an astronaut after giving birth—not to explore new worlds, but to survive the unforgiving terrain of early parenthood. Eat the Mama is a wildly funny, deeply tender crash landing into being a mom, where love, shame, and everything you once knew comes undone. It’s comedy on the surface, truth at the core, and a journey into being completely devoured by love.

Writer/producer/performer Jessica Mele is a comedy writer and performer who co–founded San Francisco’s longest-running female-driven sketch comedy group, Chardonnay. Now based in LA, she spends her time as an unwilling participant in her son’s Lego Star Wars games and writing parody songs about the patriarchy.
