			<description>Cutting Edge Drama Co presents &quot;THE MEMORY OF WATER&quot; 
by Shelagh Stephenson Directed by Sioux Smith

From Cutting Edge Drama that brought you the amazing ‘Bouncers’ and ‘Ladies Night’,  comes the award winning play ‘The Memory of Water’ by Shelagh Stephenson (Winner of 2000 Olivier Award for Best Comedy)  

The play revolves around three sisters gathering at the family home to organize their mother’s funeral. Estranged and with completely different personality types, each of them disputes and reinvents their childhood memories, as they come to terms with her death.  It isn’t long before grief and niggling resentments, give way to over-the-top comic hilarity!  Heartfelt and extremely funny this play will have you nodding your head in recognition one moment, and howling with laughter the next.

With Cutting Edge Drama, you are guaranteed an exhilarating evening of theatre and fun. For more information go to www.cuttingedgedrama.co.nz
