The UIW Department of Theatre Arts invites you to The Memory of Water, a gloriously funny and deeply felt story about three bereaved sisters who have come together for the funeral of their mother. Witty rebuttals give way to festering resentments; booze and dope-fuelled hilarity to sudden glimpses of buried secrets and aching pain, all resulting in quarrels over the funeral arrangements, their well-worn family roles, their unsatisfactory men, and their mixed memories of their dearly departed mother.

The Memory of Water is directed by Mark Stringham with costumes by Margaret Mitchell and scenery and lighting by Melissa Gaspar.
