Actor Pearl Mackie talks about playing the lead in our one-woman co-production with Brixton House, written by Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti
Pearl Mackie carries our one-woman play, and is phenomenal in this raw, complex and charismatic role.
Written by award-winning playwright Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti 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.
