    The National Center for New Plays presents the West Coast premiere of Taboos by Carl Djerassi, directed by Rush Rehm. When Harriet met Sally, it was love at first sight... but then, the complications began. What makes a parent? Love, genetics, giving birth? This question lies at the center of this play.

    Djerassi explores the other side of planned parenthood. When a lesbian couple and an infertile fundamentalist Christian couple each look to have a child, more than biology gets in the way of the idea of the “perfect family.”

    Taboos is a disquieting comedy about keeping it all in the family as it explores the unexpected -- and often messy --results that arise when emotions and science collide.

    Following the Feb. 12th matinee performance, there will be a panel discussion held in conjunction with the Stanford Medical School -- free and open to the public.
