Written by a former Fairfax journalist, Jane Cafarella, the play mixes laugh-out-loud one-liners with flashes of true grief – but it only skims the surface
E-baby protagonist Nellie playfully likens her surrogacy to baking a cake. The couple paying her to carry their unborn child provided the ingredients and she is the oven, waiting for this small miracle to cook.
As in many moments in this new play that tugs resolutely at the heart, Nellie – a working-class, bountiful, magnanimous mother-of-two – has hit the nail on the head. Written by former Fairfax journalist Jane Cafarella, e-baby is an endearing romp into the complex world of surrogacy. It mixes laugh-out-loud one-liners and witty repertoire with flashes of true grief and pain.
