'a quietly devastating, beautifully written drama' - Simon Beaufoy, Oscar Winning writer of Slumgdog Millionaire and The Full Monty
One unanswered letter and a lifetime of secrets. Can you ever really know your own family?
​
While hoping to reconnect with his ex-girlfriend, Noah discovers a dusty box of unread diaries and letters in his attic. Hidden inside is the forgotten story of his grandparent’s marriage. This tender true story is one grandson’s attempt to piece together their discarded lives, from Frank Sinatra and amateur cricket to burnt letters and unspoken loss. Noah’s family history entwines with his own messy romance, challenging him to find hope and forgiveness within the chaos of heartbreak and memory.
​
A deeply moving, autobiographical one-person play for adults of all ages. We'll remember those we have loved and lost and celebrate how joyful remembering them can be.
