Emotional performances in a well written and relatable story. ‘Ajar’ is a cleverly directed, and beautifully pared back performance, that holds your attention right to the very end.

Loved it

Ajar keeps your mind on the edge of its seat the entire time, blending whimsy and charm into an existential minefield. This show leaves you wondering about it all. I would see it again!

A show that makes you think about questions you may never have thought about!

Incredible performance!

Impactful performance

A tragic comedy, Ajar begins with two sisters contemplating life, specifically how miserable one of them has become. This sister has decided that the solution to her problems is to deliberately get Alzheimer's disease. As that may suggest, the humour here can be both dark and ridiculous. I never felt the play crossed any lines though, largely thanks to the other sister keeping things grounded. I very much appreciated that Ajar ends with a glimpse of hope, as ambiguous as it was.
