"[Parents are] delighted to see that it is not just them who can have trouble making their babies do what they expect"
Fringe Review, Edinburgh (2023)
"I had a great time and she had a great time – and that never happens! Everything was safe – I could just relax and enjoy. She could grab and touch and crawl and do her thing"
Audience feedback
Whipped Up! follows Dottie, an eager-to-please 50's-style diner server on their first day on the job - where the baby is the customer, and caregivers are along for the ride.
As the server waits on their "demanding" clientele (imagine babies doing what babies do best – creating adorable chaos!) the server grows increasingly frazzled - and more and more entertaining!
Stimulating for tiny audience members with sensory play served up throughout the show, and hilarious for parents/adults watching their loved ones take on roles in an unfolding comedy.
