“My sister smells of wood smoke, warm earth, oranges, and dust… we buried you in a wood, underneath an oak tree. There are bluebells there in April.“

Whole is a show about two people – one of them is on stage, the other isn’t. Emma has been looking for a way to fill the gaping hole her identical twin sister’s death has left behind. So, she thought she would make a show for them. Only it’s proving a little tricky because Emma doesn’t like doing things on her own.

Every night a volunteer from the audience will join Emma on stage to assist her in performing the show. A unique and intimate experience that uses visual imagery, storytelling, and inspiration from an anarchic ginger cat, Whole explores a tender, messy love story about siblings, loss and the healing power of a creative mission.

Expect ghost stories, music, and the magic of community. Uplifting, life affirming and different every night, Whole takes a peek into the journeys we take to re-find ourselves in our darkest moments.
