Baby Show, The

Synopsis:
Love, law, charity and shame lie at the bottom of many a birth. These themes are investigated by an expert. A deliberately barren spinster accompanied by her dog love child. As the performer's own story, the tone is of playful laughter, chased and haunted by glimmering shadows.
