The Twig Child6+
Musical fairytale in a winter tent

A man and a woman are lying in bed asleep. Suddenly the woman wakes up sobbing. She wants a child and she wants it now because she has waited long enough. Her husband knows how impatient she can be, so the next morning he sets off in search of a child…

Lucas Van den Eynde and Tine Embrechts perform this extraordinary story about a mother's irrepressible desire for a child. It is a funny, ferocious, strange and yet recognizable story about the unreasonableness and recklessness of someone who is determined her dream should instantly come true. It is performed in Laika's amazing theatre marquee to wonderful music by Guy Van Nueten.

"Aaaaaahhhh!!!! I want a child. Nowww!!!"
