Into The Woods?

I just got cast as Jack’s Mother in Into The Woods, and I’m not sure how I feel about it. Like, I’m happy to have a role and everything, but she just nags a shit-ton and her life sucks (not even in a dramatic way) and then she dies. Like, I get enough of that at home. Can someone explain her role to me? I should be happy to have a role, though.

sorry for bitching. i’ve had a lot of similar roles lately, so I’m a bit frustrated.
