Katie Laid an Eggy
Prototype 237, 2024
The day before Katie's 30th birthday, she laid an egg. Then she laid five more. Hopefully that doesn't pull too much focus at the party! Katie Laid an Eggy is a play about Katie, who laid an egg (and then five more), and how that pulls focus at her birthday party. Maybe the eggs hatch, maybe they get turned into a nice frittata. Only one way to find out!
