About this event
Alone in a new city, her last bottle of wine nearly empty, a woman drinks but
can never forget. Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, her
grandfather wanders the past, fighting to remember.
Told with Tracy Crisp's trademark blend of poignancy and humour, a compassionate story about a woman's identity, family memory, and ageing.
If we don't remember who we were, then who do we become?
