ANOTHER GOODBYE
A PERFORMANCE AND CONVERSATION ABOUT LOVE, LOSS AND SAYING GOOD-BYE
|
“We don’t know whether this will be the last time we’ll see each other…”
When Adie Mueller’s mum decided it was time to stop her medical treatment, Adie promised herself she would travel to Germany to visit her regularly. Then the pandemic happened. Another Goodbye is a deeply personal yet universal exploration of what it means to lose someone we cannot imagine living without. Through intimate storytelling, movement, sound and striking visual imagery, Adie reflects on love, grief, letting go and the questions we face when confronted with death. Gentle, honest and quietly uplifting, the performance creates a space to consider our own experiences of loss and remembrance, while opening up conversations about death and dying. The 55-minute performance is followed by a 45-60 minute conversation with staff from local hospices, offering audiences the opportunity to continue the discussion in a welcoming and supportive environment. Content warning: themes of end-of-life care, death and grief Age guidance: 12+ |

★★★★★
A Younger Theatre "Another Goodbye is like taking a microscope to the wider picture of trauma that has occurred in the past year and focussing it on the intimate web of feelings caused by a family loss." ★★★★
A Young(ish) Perspective " Mueller is a masterful writer and stirring performer whose work I am thoroughly grateful to have encountered- I am certain all who experience this affirming, empathetic piece of theatre will carry it with them for a long time to come." |
