Birth Right
September 2018, Calder Theatre, Waterloo- BOOK HERE
Three strangers, each growing a person inside them. Birth Right is a pregnancy and birth tour de force, exploring our shifting attitudes and beliefs around what we should or shouldn't expect when we decide to have a child.
"I have two Key non-negotiables: Intact baby, intact perineum. Other than that, I'm good to go"
In the wake of #MeToo and recent media discourse about "natural birth", are women's bodies in childbirth the last gender taboo?
Doll's Eye Theatre create plays which challenge audience perception of gender. Following two sell out London productions, Doll's Eye Theatre return with Birth Right written by Artistic Director Amy Ewbank. The production was informed by interviews and focus groups with women about their experiences of birthing and working within NHS maternity services.
Birth Right is being performed at the start of September in Waterloo. For more information and to book, CLICK HERE.
