The Memory of Water

By Shelagh Stephenson

After years of separation three sisters return to the family’s Yorkshire home for their mother’s funeral. As they revisit their past it becomes clear that their memories are both subjective and unreliable, exposing hidden lies, self-betrayal and personal, unresolved crises. Their mother’s death impacts on the sisters in different ways but each is forced to face unsettling and often poignant home truths that challenge their current lifestyles and ambitions.

Proscenium presents this warm, well-observed, often hilarious but strangely unnerving play.
