What happens when someone is born?
Two people rehearse a family.
A family rehearses a play.
A play that is born from artists with different ways of making and thinking about theatre, and from a shared desire to transform life on stage.
They call on memories, people and characters to question narratives about birth, death, inheritance, community and care networks.
Theatre as a way of rehearsing possible futures.
Through the family architectures created by their own births, they invite us to sit at the table. They say: bringing up a child is a political act.
