Audience's responses at EdFringe 2017 - Theatre Re's The Nature of Forgetting
About the show:
“There is something, way down deep that’s eternal about every human being... And that’s what’s left when memory is gone.”
Thornton Wilder - Our Town
Part of British Council Edinburgh Showcase 2017 and following a sell-out run at the 2017 London International Mime Festival, Theatre Re presents a powerful, explosive and joyous piece about what is left when memory is gone.
Tom is 55, today. As he dresses for his party, tangled threads of disappearing memories spark him into life, unravelling as a tale of friendship, love and guilt.
About Theatre Re:
Established in 2009, Theatre Re is a London-based international ensemble creating thought-provoking and moving work.
Its shows examine fragile human conditions in a compelling, physical style embracing mime, theatre and live music, and are often described as magical, poetic and tender as well as disturbing and haunting.
The name of the company comes from the prefix ‘re’. It is the ‘re’ of re-discovering and re-imagining, breathing new life into what already exists. Intimate collaborations with experts in different fields - such as science and public health - and various community groups throughout the devising process play a crucial part in the development of the work. Our productions have toured widely in the UK but also in France, Ireland, Switzerland and Germany.
Theatre Re is an Associate Company at The Point, Eastleigh and South Hill Park Arts Centre.
Productions include: The Nature of Forgetting (2017), Blind Man’s Song (2015-2016), The Little Soldiers (2013-2014), The Gambler (2011-2013), Your Letter, At Last! (2009-2011) and gLoved (2009-2010).
