In the camp tradition of the late 60s ‘psychobiddy’ genre is “Third Reich Mommie” – it features some of Melbourne’s finest queer theatre makers.  Third Reich Mommie is Charles Busch on a day trip to the Grindhouse. Faded star Bridgette Van Kamp has been a recluse since World War 2 ended; relying on the goodwill of her daughter Cassidy to get by. But Cassidy’s coming into her own: she’s 17 and counting, with the bloodlust to prove it. And what of the dark secret that lies beneath her mother’s refusal to leave the house?

Creator and star Christopher Bryant and his co-star Nathan Burmeister came into chat about the show that’s playing at The Abbotsford Convent as during the Midsumma Festival.
