Event Info
The Memory of War
By Shelagh Stephenson
Directed by Roger Hodgman
Set & Costume Design by Steve Nolan
Cast includes Geoff Kelso
In the best tradition of British black humour, this award-winning comedy by playwright Shelagh Stephenson proves that death can reveal the absurdity of life. When sisters Mary, Teresa and Catherine gather together at their childhood home on the eve of their mother’s funeral, laughter and tears ensue in equal measure. As each of the sisters struggles to come to grips with their loss, childhood battle lines are unearthed and redrawn, memories are disputed and reinvented, life choices are analysed, and grief gives way to cathartic giggling fits.
Black Swan is delighted that Roger Hodgman, multi award-winning director and former Artistic Director of Melbourne Theatre Company and the Vancouver Playhouse, will direct this wonderful comedy that proves it is never too late to grow up.
2000 Laurence Olivier Award for Best Comedy
2001 UK ‘Play of the Year’
“As emotions on stage fluctuated from laughter to tears, so too did reactions in the audience and at times the proverbial pin could have been heard to drop. … A must for all daughters.” The British Theatre Guide
