| Synopsis: | forwards us 20 years into a future of reverse evolution. On the island of Delfina, a microbiologist, Gwendolyn (in a snappy portrayal by Lindsay Haynes) awakens to find her body covered with a silvery iridescence. Worried about pollution and climate change, Gwen injected her womb with her own DNA to give birth to a child &smarter than we were. Now six months pregnant but flat bellied, Gwen can only keep the fetus from violently kicking her by swallowing fish whole and swimming daily in the ocean. A Caribbean midwife, Mirabella Fontaine, (projected by dynamic-voiced Danielle Drakes) lightens the ominous tone by observing that even though Gwen smells like a fish, she radiates like the angel for the Christmas tree. - Rosalind Lacy, dctheatrescene | |||||
