Summer is over. GCSEs are looming. But Year 11s are only talking about one thing: babies. Not real ones... but the plastic simulator dolls they’ve been given to keep alive for a whole entire week. With a blistering pop rock score, this brand new British musical follows nine students as they discover that becoming a parent means changing more than just nappies. Friendships are tested, dreams are questioned and the real meaning of responsibility rears its terrifying head.
Featuring songs ‘Baby Baby Baby’ performed by Hannah Lowther, Grace Mouat, Courtney Bowman, Miracle Chance, Maddison Bulleyment, Aitch Wylie, Billy Nevers, James Hameed and Luke Bayer and ‘Hot Dad’ performed by Aitch Wylie, Billy Nevers, James Hameed and Luke Bayer.
