About this event in the Jura in Saint-Amour
Parenting through the lens of the absurd
At the théâtre de la Chevalerie in Saint-Amour, “The Fruit of Our Wombs” takes a humorous look at the issues surrounding parenting today. Somewhere between an absurd lecture and dubious methods, the show explores the contradictory demands, anxieties and absurdities associated with this subject.
A comparison sets the tone
“Parenting is like the pelvic floor. It's a muscle. And when it becomes slack, you have to retrain it!” This line captures the show's absurd tone: parenting is examined through a comparison with a muscle that needs retraining.
