Blue Elephant Theatre, Camberwell

A wry, touching and visually poetic new play about bereavement.

Hannah’s father died of cancer when she was seventeen and in the seven years since, she hasn't talked about it much. Here she opens up, in a new show about memory, absence, bereavement... and how hard it is to talk about death.

So It Goes is a wry and beautiful re-telling of the true story of watching someone die and dealing with the aftermath. We are fascinated by the silence which death provokes, by the way grief creeps into our everyday lives and affects us even years after a death.

So It Goes is presented as a work-in-progress performance and feedback will be welcomed after each show.
