Black Swan State Theatre Company presents The Memory of Water July 4 through 19. In the best tradition of British black humor, the award-winning comedy The Memory of Water by playwright Shelagh Stephenson proves that death can reveal the absurdity of life.
When sisters Mary, Teresa, and Catherine gather together at their childhood home on the eve of their mother's funeral, laughter and tears ensue in equal measure. As each of the sisters struggles to come to grips with their loss, childhood battle lines are unearthed and redrawn, memories are disputed and reinvented, life choices are analyzed, and grief gives way to cathartic giggling fits.
Black Swan is delighted that Roger Hodgman, multi aware-winning director and former Artistic Director of Melbourne Theatre Company and the Vancouver Playhouse, is directing this wonderful comedy that proves it is never too late to grow up.
