Baby Shower Katie
4545 East-West Highway Bethesda
The Bonnie Hammerschlag National Capital New Play Festival returns with the hilarious world premiere of Baby Shower Katie. Best friends Rebecca and Hannah are at a crossroads: Rebecca desperately wants a child, while Hannah can't imagine anything worse. Across four baby showers, thrown for three different women named Katie, Rebecca and Hannah are forced to confront their divergent dreams, the absurd expectations placed on mothers, and the terror and uncertainty that can surround pregnancy. Beth Hyland's irreverent new comedy asks what happens when the life we have been told to want no longer fits the person we are becoming. Part of the Bonnie Hammerschlag National Capital New Play Festival. Co-world premiere with Primary Stages, New York City.
