Event details

Freewheeling down unreliable dreamscapes – limestone cliffs and sand so much sand on legs and feet and we jumped off the bridge into the river – is that a memory or a fantasy?

Does it matter when it’s all gone anyway, the water and the children and the shiny orange dragstar.

A memoir, a reflection, an assemblage of selves that might make sense of the world that is through the prism of the world that’s gone.

Who am I if all I was is gone? A sequence not an object, a series not a movie, a lot of beginnings with no endings. “Oh you never finish plays” says Peta Murray, “you just abandon them”.

A narcissistic phenomenological reimagining of the subject.

Written by Maude Davey with songs by Jane Bayly.

Saturday 26th October - 4pm Saturday 26th October - 7:30pm Sunday 27th October 2pm Performed by Maude Davey and Jane Bayly Lighting Design by Gina Gascoigne Dramaturgy Anni Davey
