Northern Stage We're proud to introduce our series: “Meet the Characters of Parallel Lives.” Episode 1. As the show opens, two Supreme Beings debate the creation of humankind. They toss around different ideas and decide everything from skin color to the details of procreation. Finally, they discuss which one—female or male—gets to ha...ve the baby. Being One says, “Could be either one. It’s a crapshoot, really. Wanna do alphabetical?”

So the female gets the privilege of giving birth. But in fairness, they have to give the guys something, too. What do you think it should be?
