THE STORY: “Bringing up baby” takes on new meaning for a successful young couple who start living their lives through their baby boy when he is cast in an award-winning commercial—as a girl! Their lives are turned upside down and the spoils of success bring unexpected results in this surprising, twisted comedy. Told in twenty-seven scenes, beginning in the present and spanning ten years, BABY ANGER presents a timely discourse on the trend of casting our children in the all-too-bright limelight.
“…disturbing, scathing and timely dissection of the widespread American custom of turning children into trophies…BABY ANGER does not simply force adults to search their consciences. It urgently reminds them of the necessity to shield children from parents’ own, often childish expectations.” —The New York Times.
