Who are The Mothers?
The Mothers are a sketch and improv company from Columbia, South Carolina, made up of comedians from the local scene who aim to keep live comedy cheap enough for anyone. They work as the house comedy company of Trustus Theatre, in the middle of the city, and have been making Soda City laugh for more than ten years. In August 2020, readers of Columbia's weekly paper The Free Times picked them as the city's top local comedy or improv troupe, the first time that title was given. The company has twice been part of the New South Comedy Festival, and it has also played the First Thursday and Girls Block events. [1][2]
