Next Door's Baby archiveSet in 1950s Dublin - earthy musical tale of feuding mothers, jealousy and family secrets. As a Bonny Baby competition deepens the rift between the neighbouring Hennessys and O'Briens, we learn that nothing in either tiny terraced house is quite as it seems. The neighbouring families are both convinced their little bundle of joy will triumph. Orla, eldest daughter of the noisy, numerous O'Briens, glances with envy across the garden wall at Miriam Hennessy's sedate and genteel home life. Whilst the matriarchs feud, the two girls discover they have something in common: they both hide a shameful secret. On the eve of the final they collude on a daring plan that will change their lives and their relationships with their families for ever.
