Join Ellie in an interactive performance with red wine and very poor bedside manner as they rehearse every potential “final” conversation they could have with their grandfather. If you like Friday nights in the pub, poetry readings, and family Christmas dinners, this is the show for you. Audiences will leave feeling a bit weepy, wanting to explore their family's attic, and call their grandparents (if they're still alive) as Ellie asks: how much can you really avoid grief before it happens?
