Arran R Hawkins, Director of Black Is The Color Of My Voice and creator of Lost In The Woods brings his new theatre show to Bigbury Memorial Hall for an exclusive preview performance ahead of its Edinburgh Festival Fringe run this summer.'We live, and, if we are lucky, we love. And one day, its taken from us, with no explanation. And we have to get on with it. We have to live. What else is there?'A new series of monologues based around the universal themes of love and loss, this work takes an honest look at what so many of us find difficult to deal with. The loss of love. Told with humour, openness and honesty, three generations tell their stories.A young woman comes to terms with the loss of her baby, the memories of her bullying days fresh in her mind. Is this what she deserves? Is this her comeuppance?A middle-aged man who lost his life-partner to the Blood Scandal finally feels he is getting some kind of closure, the stigma of losing the love of his life to the AIDS epidemic a burden he has carried for 28 years.An elderly woman returns from her husband's funeral service to a quiet and empty house, and a very different existence. 47 years with the same person. So what now?Through the lens of these human experiences, the audience is gently guided into reflections of their own journeys of love and loss. A moving and thought-provoking show that helps us appreciate the preciousness of our own experiences, and reminds us that, although we may face loss, the imprint of the love we have experienced remains in our hearts always.
