Kaya has always used humour and songwriting to cope with the challenges in life.

Scrambled Eggs is a tragicomic musical theatre show which weaves authentic stories together to explore darkness and light in the emotionally complex world of fertility journeys.

As one of the more than 3.5 million people in the UK experiencing infertility, Kaya (and her husband) compiled funny and dark anecdotes as a way to process the experience. Sharing her story led to a profound connection with audiences and began a dialogue around infertility and childlessness.

This work in progress explores involuntary and chosen childlessness, the impact of social pressure, and the pursuit of leaving a legacy. Scrambled Eggs uses live music, physical theatre and visuals to explore joy, loss, isolation, and the perspective gained on the journey from grief to acceptance.
