Is there anything more exciting, frightening and utterly transformational than impending parenthood? “Baby” tells the story of three couples on a university campus as they deal with the painful, rewarding and agonizingly funny consequences of this universal experience. There are the college students, barely at the beginning of their adult lives; the thirty-somethings, having trouble conceiving but determined to try; and the middle aged parents, looking forward to seeing their last child graduate from college when a night of unexpected passion lands them back where they started. A smart, energetic show with loads of charm, “Baby” has a modern, up-to-date sensibility, with strong female characters, an hysterically insightful book by Sybille Pearson and a tuneful, contemporary score of showstopping numbers by David Shire and Richard Maltby, Jr. (“Starting Here, Starting Now,” “Closer Than Ever” and “big, The Musical”). Warm, intimate and immensely likable, “Baby” doesn’t require a lot of dance, highlighting the singing and acting talents of a small ensemble cast that spans three generations. It’s a perfect show for anyone who’s ever had a baby… or anyone who’s ever been one!
