'The past is what you remember, imagine you remember, convince yourself you remember, or pretend you remember.'

But then what is the present when all you have is a distant past?

Based on Oliver Sack's Awakenings, Pinter brings to life the tale of a woman awakening from a catatonic state, known as sleeping sickness, after 30 years. Sleeping as a child she awakes as an adult, terrified, confused and alone. This beautiful play offers a glimpse into a mind that has been suspended in time and space, examining a woman who has been dreaming a 16 year olds' dream for three decades.

For one night only, come explore memory and the human experience, and witness one of the most delightful and simply beautiful of Pinter's plays.
