Description
Someone has been keeping a record. Every day, for 20 years. It's all in her notebooks: hours worked, money spent, cigarettes smoked; 38 categories that serve as a record of how each of her days has been spent. Why did she start? What kept her returning to them? Phoebe Benson directs this experimental one-woman play that explores a person's attempt to grapple with the incessant flow of time through daily rituals and habits. Starring Lisa Vetta, this play is inspired by the real notebooks of Dalia: aunt of artist and playwright Vytautas Bikauskas.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

Well crafted and very engaging. A window into a life most will find strange and some very familiar.

Professional, engaging and thought provoking play. Superbly acted by Lisa Vetta creating an atmospheric performance. Directed and produced by Phoebe Benson, the real life storytelling of the main character became compelling and engaging. Congratulations also to Vytautas Bikauskas for writing this terrific piece. I would highly recommend seeing this very creative play.
