Emma Sandall confronts the vexatious question "should I have a child" in a performance that serves up an emotional and intellectual gut punch with a dose of black humour.

Inspired by Sheila Heti’s book 'Motherhood', director and performer Emma Sandall has worked with composer Elena Kats Chernin AO and pianist Yanghee Kim to create a highly original collision of animation, music and movement to explode and examine the quandary she faced at the end of her child-bearing years. Drawing inspiration from Monty Python and the golden era of silent film, this vaudevillian show takes the audience on a sometimes absurdist, often comic, and always deeply compassionate ride. Along the way, it challenges the idea of female fulfilment and sacrifice and who gets to define it.

Join us for these performances at the Drill Hall in Rushcutters Bay as we continue to develop the work after its successful season in The Sydney Fringe Festival and en route to its first international tour to Nashville. Your ticket price includes a pre show drink and we invite you to join us for a post show conversation.
