“The Romanizza Company decided to immerse us in the comic book universe of Jean-Claude Danaud. With Casanova’s Babies, he delivers one of his most original plays. …It’s funny and sharp. This incisive play offers delightful surprises.” Jean-Louis Châles, The Week of Shows
A modern-day Casanova, a lady’s man, is seized with the unexpected yet no less persistent desire to be… a father. He decides to hire the services of a professional surrogate mother, Rebecca, rated 18/20 for her “sensuality”. That helps! And the photo novel enthusiast becomes pregnant quickly. Things look good then. Well… no, they quickly get complicated! Casanova doesn’t stop at one incongruity as he falls in love. The chosen one, Christina, met at the ice cream shop, receives a much poorer rating, but that doesn’t matter: she made him melt! And then everything really gets complicated because ice cream sellers have nothing zesty but their pretty little dresses… and surrogate mothers might sell their wombs but sometimes give away their hearts… Oh dear, poor Casanova!
