The Memory of Water
Ensemble Theatre presents
The Memory of Water

20 Oct 2023 to 25 Nov 2023

Described as “glorious, hilarious and heart-warming”, this bittersweet comedy takes a new look at the age-old traditions of recollecting family stories. 

 

Mary, Catherine, and Teresa are sisters who share a common past. A world of disputed bicycles, midnight ice-cream sodas, cocktail dresses, and their Mum’s perfumed advice. A seaside childhood punctuated by the odd monosyllable from Dad.

 

Where does reality end and family mythology begin? Why has sibling war broken out in their mother’s bedroom? Why are past recollections still so with us?
