CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM PRESENTS DEMON BABY, BY ERIN
COURTNEY, AT THE LIMINIS

Getting stressed out by the holidays? Or just had your fill of
the usual treacle and sugar-plum fairies?  Either way,
DEMON BABY is a perfect antidote. You can laugh your cares
away, and maybe get a little creeped-out too, at
convergence-continuum’s production of Courtney’s lighthearted
dark comedy about the stresses of jobs, displacement,
fitting in and “making nice” when you really don’t feel like it.

Wren and Art, are relocated to London, where Art becomes immersed
in his new corporate lifestyle. The previously outgoing Wren
retreats into an agoraphobic state, frozen by her fear until she
is visited by a demon baby. This impish gnome inspires Wren to try
to connect in her new surroundings, even if her attempts
-- a seduction, a dinner party, and a near-fatal game of pinata --
are bizarre and misguided.  Comic and surreal, DEMON BABY follows
our whimsical screwball heroine as the demon baby turns her loose
in her small circle of power couples; and she stops being a recluse
and becomes a guided missile.
