"It's hard to imagine, but we wrote the show in 1983, and since then just about every social issue connected with the show has changed utterly," said Mr. Maltby. "Gender, sexuality, language, fertility, marriage norms, same-sex marriage and adoption, women having babies after 40 - everything has changed. We are excited that Out of the Box Theatrics has invited us to take a new look at the show, as if we were writing it today. In many ways it is almost a new show."

The show will feature American Sign Language (ASL), and all Sunday performances will have an ASL interpreter.

The production, directed and choreographed by Paulini, will play from November 5, 2021 through December 12, 2021 in a 60-seat loft at Theatrelab (357 West 36th Street, 3rd Floor). Opening night is Sunday, November 14, 2021.

Baby played a limited engagement at a midtown loft in December 2019, where the run was extended by popular demand. This return engagement will allow more theatregoers to experience the intimate production.

The original Broadway production of Baby opened at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre in 1983, where it received seven Tony Award nominations, including Best Musical, Best Original Score and Best Direction. The smart and tuneful Maltby-Shire score has become a favorite of theatre fans over the years, including such songs as "I Want It All," "The Story Goes On," "I Chose Right," and "Patterns" (dropped from the original Broadway production, but reinstated here). Baby was based upon a story developed with Susan Yankowitz. The original Broadway production was directed by Richard Maltby, Jr., and was produced on Broadway by James B. Freydberg and Ivan Bloch, Kenneth John Productions Inc., and Suzanne J. Schwartz, in association with Manuscript Productions.
