As an exhausted new mother nurses in the dark of yet another night, her apartment comes to life; possessions possessed with the demons of fear, self-doubt and anxiety, a chorus of objects and body parts. You know, standard parenting stuff. It’s David Cronenberg meets What to Expect When You’re Expecting.

Such imagination! Loved the dust bunnies, the clock, the book, the diapers….
It was so great to see such skillful manipulation, with the performer feeding into the image so completely.
Fantastic show, definitely a must see.. Particularly for moms. Impeccable. Truly captures the mind of a new mother portraying the struggle through puppetry. Entertaining and original.
Very special and delightfully creative look at new motherhood and the conflicts, the fears and doubts, the physical and mental exhaustion that go with it and that can fight against the love, the hope, and the wonder of it all.
It brought all that back for me! Not much has changed in 30 years – but maybe that’s just how it has to be.
The performances were so expressive. Well done and thank you!
