MOMMA WON'T DIE is a dark comedy based on a true story about three generations of Southern women wrestling with death, dysfunction, and a century’s worth of emotional clutter. Written by Patty Pell & Laurie Pell Grigsby, directed by Del Shores.
Gigi Ralston, the 108-year-old matriarch of P-burg, West Virginia, announces she’s finally ready to “give up the ghost.” Her devoted caregiver, Ruby, frantically calls the family to give the sad news. Jamie, the wayward daughter, snaps, “She’s bluffing.” Libby, the dutiful granddaughter, simply says, “I’ll be there.” Back in Gigi’s once-grand Victorian home - where the porch still pretends everything’s perfect while the inside tells the truth - old wounds come flooding back. Secrets surface, tempers flare, and a parade of quirky locals, nosy neighbors, and self-appointed helpers turn the house into a three-ring circus of caregiving and chaos. But y’all, Momma won’t die! So while they wait, in this “Bless-Your-Heart West Virginia World,” the knives are always there. It’s just that with Southern families…you won’t see ’em comin’.
Somewhere under all the emotional wreckage, years of pride and good old-fashioned Southern spite, these women still manage to finally really see each other. It’s not tidy, and it’s definitely not genteel, but in that Southern Gothic, maddening, beautifully flawed way…family wins out.
