After an amazing run at the Hollywood Fringe this year, "Baby Rock" -A heartwarming and whimsical bilingual children’s musical- goes overseas to dazzle audiences at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Directed by Taylor Bazos and starring Liv Licursi and Ana Karina Cano, the show will run at C Aquila from July 31st to August 24th. We are so hyped to have 24 performances in the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town - But we need YOU to help us take it to the next level!
Our team
Hello, Hola! This story is very close to our hearts because not only does it hold a very important message but is a reflection of our team's friendship. Ana is from Chihuahua, Mexico and Taylor is from New York. We met when we were both studying abroad in Spain and took an acting class together. We didn’t speak the same language and we are from very different backgrounds, but we immediately connected over our love of the arts and learning about new cultures. I hope that everyone can find a similar and special connection like ours and learn how to love through music, dance and play.
More about the show
Baby Rock is a bilingual children’s musical in English and Spanish about a young girl, Anastasia, who explores the world and learns how to make a new friend regardless of language barriers and differences.
Our show teaches children in the audience at a very young age not only to accept others' differences but also to love and appreciate them for it. It is our hope that, through Baby Rock, we make the world a kinder and better place.
What are people saying about the show?
“A fantastic, all-ages play date with some surprisingly evocative storytelling and great musical talent.”
"It is funny and heartwarming, and uses a language barrier to showcase how little language actually factors into understanding each other at our core."
"With a gorgeous set and the insatiable energy of a sleep-over, Baby Rock is everything you’d want from an all ages show."
“The music, visuals, dialogue, and set design all work together to create a child-like wonder”
