Description

'A love letter to my mother that I’ll never send...' A storytelling performance about a mother and daughter, based on real-life events and encompassing elements of Irish folklore. Full of anecdotes, myths, funny stories and tough truths, it’s a rollercoaster experience inside a fun (if slightly traumatised) woman’s brain. This is not only about those with mental-health issues, it is about those that care for, love and grow up with them. 'O’Brien is stellar. This is storytelling as it should be' ***** (Herald). 'A masterpiece' ***** (EdFringeReview.com). 'Absolutely gripping' **** (ScotsGayArts.com). 'Mesmeric to watch' **** (CorrBlimey.uk).

Absolutely spellbinding theatre. Sinéad is a stunning storyteller and from start to finish this piece is gripping, powerful, and alive. Excellent writing, acting and direction.

British Theatre Guide (4/5 stars) 26 days ago

After some entertainingly warm and believable, if perhaps overlong, character establishing work, we’re thrust into a whirlwind of powerlessness and outcry as the group try to reckon with the realities of global economics and industrialism, and their weight on politics.
