Baby

Three couples with buns in the oven manage their expectations in this modestly scaled musical—book by Sybille Pearson, score by Richard Maltby Jr. and David Shire—which has attracted something of a cult following since its brief 1983 Broadway run. Ethan Paulini directs and choreographs a site-specific two-week revival at a loft in midtown; the cast of nine, led by major musical-theater attraction Alice Ripley (Next to Normal), also includes Evan Ruggiero, Christina Sajous and Robert Fowler.
