DESCRIPTION OF PIECE

As Paige's twenty-fifth birthday approaches, the fear of being universally disliked creeps in. She turns to a psychic for guidance and discovers an opportunity to manipulate those around her. As she navigates her newfound popularity, she is forced to confront deeper questions. What does it mean to love oneself and others? Can magic truly heal a broken heart? And when does the quest for love and validation become self-destructive? Babybird is a funny, fast-paced show filled with song and references to Midsummer Night’s Dream, that invites us to question what it means to feel lovable and likable.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
​
​Formed in 2020 at Tufts University, Wednesday Nights develops new plays together, generally outdoors. We meet on Tuesdays. Our plays are sweet, funny, surreal, and most importantly, relatively short. We're interested in love and sex, gender, anger, death, humiliation, and being funny. We also make plays about those things. You may have seen us performing in a Somerville backyard, in the Middlesex Fells Reservation, or on Zoom. Actors: Paige Walker, Tim Sanford, Sara Kimble, Katrina Coffman, and Jason Martin. Playwright/Director: Megan Rivkin.
