It tackles what it’s truly like to grow something inside of you and battle the tho ughts of your own inner child\, while manoeuvring a medical field like a l andmine. At the heart of this play\, it is about a person’s bodily auton omy and trying to navigate a world that was not made for them.\n\n \;\ n\nTicket Offers:\n\n Festival Pass Wristband: After selling out in 2022 \, our limited-edition Festival Pass Wristbands return for this year’s f estival.
