"Be My Baby” is a timely and surreal exploration of a son's lifelong struggle to care for his mother with Traumatic Brain Injury, all while grappling with America's criminally negligent healthcare industry. The show unfolds as a journey of love and self-discovery, structured around a vivid dream where angelic dancers clad in rhinestones guide Vincent and his mother through a night on the town that could lead them to the existential answers they so desperately seek.
