From award-winning writer and performer Nick Tipa (Kāi Tahu), and with dramaturgy by Late Bloomers co-founder Bronwyn Wallace comes Babyface, a solo play about big-time wrestling and small-town Aotearoa.
Whiplash is a professional wrestler and is the heavyweight champion of the world. Kahu is a 10-year-old boy and has just moved with his parents to a new town. What do they have in common? They are the same person.
Directed by Sara Georgie, and with music and sound design by Zac Nicholls (Koizilla, Space Bats, Attack!), Babyface explores one boy's experience of growing up, fitting in, and landing a suplex in rural Aotearoa.
