About This Show
Birth is a powerfully sensitive new piece of visual theatre about being on a precipice, losing and creating a new life. Emily is six months pregnant when she reads her grandmother’s journal. Delving into the depths of her family history triggers a shift in her sense of reality, unveiling a legacy of unspoken tragedies, courage and unconditional love.
Birth was inspired by the field of psychogenealogy, Frida Kahlo and interviews with women. The live, original music score is by Alex Judd.
