Baby Bumps

Join us for the UK premiere of 'Baby Bumps', from Theater Thikwa and hannsjana.

Who wants to have a baby, but shouldn't? And who doesn't want to have babies, but should?In an entertaining “birth preparation course”, performers from Theater Thikwa and the feminist collective hannsjana negotiate the big political questions that are addressed to their bellies every day.

For example, what goes in: beer, cake, or children - and what is allowed to come out.Through humour, in Baby Bumps (or its German title "Bauchgefühl" - which translates to ‘gut feeling’) the performers take responsibility for themselves and others, develop new forms of reproduction, parenthood and care - or consciously decide against sharing their bodies and attention with anyone.
