BABY UNIVERSE

Sometime in the future, a government program to save the population of an unnamed, dying planet in a dying universe is furiously underway. The sun is in his final days; the planets are scorched and have abandoned hope. The few remaining souls live primarily in bunkers and have resorted to cannibalism. Destruction looms imminent.

In a race against the clock, scientist-generated baby universes are being placed in the care of lonely spinsters in the hope that one might nurture to maturity a savior – a baby universe capable of birthing a planet that can support the relocation of the entire population.

An original piece presented with over 30 puppets, 5 actors/puppeteers, masks, a robot, animated video projection and a space-age score, Wakka Wakka spins the bizarre tale of “Baby Universe.”
