Baby X

By Campion Decent

18 April 2000 – 13 May 2000 Beckett Theatre

Playbox Theatre Company,

New Writing Theatre

Georgie and Evelyn, a lesbian couple, are searching for a sperm donor. Enter Adam and Baby X is conceived.

Campion Decent takes us on a nine month journey of confusion, denial and exultation, smashing a few notions of the traditional family along the way. Fabulously theatrical and very very queer, Baby X is short, sharp and snappy.

Originally produced as part of the 2000 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, this is a provocative and hilarious vision of a family in the 21st century. This recent productions is part of the Playbox Inside 2000 Season.
