Ever been struck by how differently you and your brothers and sisters remember the same events from your childhood? Do those differences matter? Do they what.
Three estranged sisters try to agree amicably on how to bury their dead parents, only to set off the ultimate shit-fight through the past when they get lost - literally in the box of old family movies under the stairs.
Their respective therapists may have told them that only by examining the past can they understand the present - but together our sisters have a different experience...As they slide further back in time, their confusion only deepens, and a steady maddening mantra emerges: It doesn't make any sense!
Three grown women, grown far apart, discover that the only way they'll ever reach each other is to behave like children.
Sydney's Headlong Theatre Company returns to The Blue Room following their much-loved 2005 show All the Things I Would NEVER Tell You in 8 Songs & 12 Pictures.
"Sometimes the only way to bury the past is to dig it up."
