Floating baby heads! Concerned parents! Rock n roll! And much, much more!
Sweet Baby Brain is a play told through a series of vignettes, each highlighting moments in Dane’s life. We will watch him navigate life from adolescence to adulthood as an epileptic. With absurdist and surreal puppetry, Dane’s memories will be portrayed as if we are walking through the halls of his brain. Behind each door is a new Technicolor, trashy, honest dreamland; this is Dane’s brain.
Brain Time is a New York/New Orleans based production company created by Dane Eskin, Smith Smith, and Tau Bennett. They will also be pairing with artists from Leroy’s Place, such as Jacques Duffourc and Caitlin Davis, who previously worked with Eskin on “DoomScrolling”, a puppetry performance that premiered at the 2024 New Orleans Giant Puppet Fest. With the help of Duffourc, Davis, and many others, Smith, Dane, and Tau will be putting on a showing of “Sweet Baby Brain”!
