An intimate musical about the joys, terrors and comedy of the most important nine months of a year, Baby looks at three couples and their voyage to parenthood: Lizzie and Danny, two college students, not married, he willing, she not; Pam and Nick, a couple in their mid-30's, unable to easily have children but determined to try, and Arlene and Alan, a couple escaping parenthood with their last child in college - an anniversary night at the Plaza Hotel. With humour and sentiment, joy and pain, Baby sings of that most worldly condition - birth.
