Summary

The acclaimed Scottish playwright Rona Munro has created a remarkable story about a man who wakes up from a car crash with brain damage. Now, he sees the world as the person he was three years ago, when his life and loves were in a very different place.

This play is part of L.A. Theatre Works’ Relativity Series featuring science-themed plays. Lead funding for the Relativity Series is provided by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, bridging science and the arts in the modern world.

Includes a conversation about brain trauma and memory loss with Dr. David Hovda, the Director of the Brain Injury Research Center at UCLA.

Compelling and gripping with great performances

The story was very interesting and performers did their job. I love Sophie Winkleman’s way of speech.
I’m going to listen to it again. 5 full stars!
