SPADURA

  • The Den Theatre 1331 North Milwaukee Avenue Chicago, IL, 60622 United States (map)

This show is recommended for ages 17 and up.

Framed as a baby shower, SPADURA is a one-woman comedy show written and performed by Dahéli Hall, which unapologetically takes on the emotional/financial cost of IVF, grief, aging, as well as the unique fertility obstacles faced by Black women in America — all with a ton of humor!

The show is a love story set against the baby industrial complex. Through a mix of stand-up, storytelling, and props, Dahéli includes personal anecdotes about herself, her Filipino husband, and her Caribbean parents. She candidly shares her journey trying to conceive their Jamaican-Haitian-Filipino-American baby. Dahéli’s humor and vulnerability make the show unforgettable.
