A performance of words, sound, and images that addresses the dilemma of those who desire a child today in a world that seems to leave no room for tomorrow.
Dad or Alive arises from a question that has pervaded an entire generation: is bringing a child into the world today an act of courage or recklessness? In an era marked by climate crisis, economic uncertainty, global instability, and growing environmental anxiety, the desire to become parents clashes with the fear of a fragile future, difficult to imagine and even more complex to convey. The show navigates this conflict with sincerity and emotional depth, transforming doubts, confessions, and vital impulses
into shared stage material.
