Before it Fades

Four short solo performances
 
exploring the fragile, funny and painful corners of our lives: struggling with parent–child relationships, holding onto one’s pain, depending on substances and taking on a strange hobby to stop time.

What would you do, what would you say, what would you leave behind… before it fades?
