"In a crowded playhouse in 1856 Sydney, Australia, two spectacular lives are about to start. During her scandalous turn as Hamlet, a heavily pregnant (and unmarried) actress unexpectedly goes into labor onstage, shocking the audience. Indeed, one patrician spectator who is also with child is so moved that she too goes into labor. The babies born that night are Miles and Isabel, two dreamers destined to defy convention and gravity."--Jacket.
