A Brief Narrative of an Extraordinary Birth of Rabbits
In 1726, Mary Toft was a pregnant English peasant who chased a rabbit through the field for supper. Something happened, something that was simply too much to reveal as itself and she began to miraculously gave birth to pieces of rabbits. Mary became a national sensation, people coming the country 'round to witness and examine her maternal impressions.
That story was a hoax.
This is not.
Mare is a dreamy, imaginative young woman. Kitty, her pragmatic sister, dreams of only one thing: a child. Mare reluctantly agrees to give surrogate birth for Kitty's child.
Everything goes exactly according to protocol until Mare gives birth to a rabbit instead...followed by 24 more.
Led by The Stork himself (yes, that one) and featuring a three-ring circus of puppets, hospital magic tricks, giant body parts, and people turning into animals, A Brief Narrative of an Extraordinary Birth of Rabbits explores infertility, creation, science, and the imagination.
EMP Collective strives to produce and support works of new and developing artists. We're excited to present the regional premier of a seldomly-produced play by innovative playwright, C Denby Swanson.
