Abby’s been Gus’ right hand in the world of A&R music since the 90’s.  Together they signed big bands, loved, fought and lived hard; it was the best kind of work marriage, at least that’s how Abby sees it.  Until Gen Z Kaitlin shows up, hell bent on showing these old rockers it’s 2021, and there’s a new generation hell bent on changing the world– evolve or die.  Who goes down?  Babe is a play about cultural evolution, how it forces us to reframe relationships, complicity in social constructs, and the selves we thought we knew.
