Inspired by scientific events and theories of our time, Baby Universe is an original work using hand-and-rod puppets, robots (The Stephen Hawking 5000), video projection, and animation. It is about the search for answers to the philosophical questions of our existence, as told through the relationship of an isolated woman and her mail order companion, “Baby Universe.” Using science, religion, and the imagination, Baby Universe will explore the human relationship to birth, death, the need for companionship, and the fear of isolation.
