Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti shares how the Clean Break commissioning process compelled her to write Baby, and what she wants audiences to take away from her work
Written by award-winning playwright Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti, performed by Pearl Mackie and directed by Milli Bhatia, Baby is a heartbreaking exploration of the lengths one woman will go to survive when the odds are stacked against her.
Through Baby’s story from childhood through to motherhood, Bhatti’s state of the nation play reveals deep-rooted inequalities and trauma faced by women in and outside of the criminal justice system.
A fearless and deeply human new play about what it takes to survive.
