About the show
collage credit: Kalindi WinfieldGrief Baby’s First Road Trip is 75 minutes on the good, the bad, the unbelievable, and the unbelievably funny of grief.

Critics and audiences agree!
“It is excellent storytelling and reminds me of some of my favorite listens: Radiolab, Stoop Stories, The Moth, and Snap Judgment. Billed as drama, there’s an abundance of humor in Adedana’s tale… Adedana herself is amazing.”
“The minute Adedana started talking, I felt like, ‘oh s**t. I’m going to dissolve. The deep and raw emotion of this is immediate.’ And she brings us so very many things to feel. The way Adedana crafted her story and the way she told it creates this connection between us. ”
“It was loving, warm, funny, and so touching - and Adedana is a delight to watch on stage.”
“I found myself laughing, crying. and feeling so many emotions throughout.”
