The nature of forgetting

Theatre Re combines original live music with striking visual performance to create deeply moving, non-verbal theatre.

Following more than 200 performances worldwide,
Theatre Re brings its explosive, powerful and
joyous piece about what is left when memory is
gone back to the UK for its landmark 10th
Anniversary Season. Since its 2017 premiere, The
Nature of Forgetting has moved audiences from
New York to Seoul, playing to sold-out houses
across the world.

Tom is living with young onset dementia. As he
prepares for his 55th birthday party, past memories
come flooding back. Developed with Neuroscience
Professor Kate Jeffery and the Alzheimer’s Society,
The Nature of Forgetting is a life-affirming journey
into a weakening mind, where fragmented does not
have to mean defeated.
