Birth and After Birth is an absurdest play written by Tina Howe. It was written in 1972 but it was not produced off-Broadway until 2006. Before this, it had its world premiere at the Wilma Theatre in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1995. Howe's play was originally met with backlash and she was quoted saying "The absurdists can shake up our preconceptions about power and identity but for a woman to take on the sanctity of motherhood, even my agent at the time dismissed me.” Its first off-Broadway performance was with the Atlantic Theatre Company and it was directed by Christian Parker. Howe has been compared to many of the great absurdest writers of the 20th century due to her loose structure and nonsense plot.
