Yep. I guess I'm destined to be a sad cautionary tale.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
It's the cult of parenting.
Seriously. There's no humor. Only Precious Moments.

My impression has been that if your parenting doesn't have moments when you think about leaving the child in a basket on the church steps, you're not doing it right. I'd be kind of scared of someone so immersed in the cult of parenthood that they remain cheery in the face of no sleep or a toddler who can hit that really high note when crying.

As Told by the Vivian Girls draws inspiration from the illustrations and 15,000-plus pages of renowned Chicago outsider artist Henry Darger, a recluse who lived in Lincoln Park and shared his art with no one. His imagination overflowed in his prolific stories and drawings, The Realms of the Unreal, where little girls battle against child slavery.
In this choose-your-own-adventure staging, audience members move throughout the entire facility of Theater on the Lake creating their own experience. The audience follows 15 characters on separate, overlapping journeys through celebrations, conflicts of faith and acts of war that culminate in a selection of two simultaneous endings.
