”They say that when you first become a parent
The purpose of your life is so much greater
Well today’s the day that I become a parent
To a robot baby simulator…”
Summer is over, and Year 11 has been handed one big assignment: keep a plastic baby alive for a week. Easy, right?
This heartwarming, joyous British pop-rock musical, brought to life by our Musical Theatre cohort, follows a group of fifteen-year-olds as they learn that parenting takes a lot more than nappy changes. Between growing up, finding true friendship, and figuring out who they are, they’ll navigate all the pressures of teenage life alongside the surprising demands of parenthood.
The production has been made possible thanks to the incredible support of Crossroads Live, who have generously awarded Mountview the exclusive first license for this newly developed version of BABIES.
