On her 30th birthday, a woman starts hearing it. Her gynaecologist starts hearing it. Her friends start hearing it: the tick tock of the biological clock. As the years pass and the pressure grows, the woman attempts to unpack the motherhood question and to decide what do to with those (ageing) eggs.
Featuring stunning video mapping on a human canvas, comedy-infused storytelling, surreal costumes, and a live-score of gynaecological instruments, this is a multimedia show about a woman's body, abortion, and our reproductive shelf-life: Game ovaries.
"Faber tells a very personal story at lightning speed with incredible honesty. The humour is hard and fast, clever but with a simple message about the pressures to conform to a certain female identity." (Sarita Rao)
