MOM! WTF!!

Edinburgh 2026

MOM! WTF!! is a comedy confessional about being raised by a “happy homemaker” in the era of free love and free-range parenting. Somehow she still became a mom herself. Carol Johnson delivers sharp stand-up, raw honesty and a cheeky women’s-rights sing-along while unpacking the drama our mothers passed down like heirlooms. Big laughs, real talk and moments that may hit a little close to home. Perfect for anyone who’s ever said, 'I thought it was just me'. Whether you’re a mom or still recovering from one, traumaste – the trauma in me bows to the trauma in you!
