WHEN YOU FORGET TO LISTEN, REALLY LISTEN, BE PREPARED FOR THE CONSEQUENCES…
A darkly comic and uncomfortably recognisable reflection on the pressures of family life, Red Ladder’s surreal production of Emma Adam’s FORGOTTEN THINGS follows the story of one boy’s often futile fight to be heard above the noise of everyday life. Fusing puppetry, physical performance and theatrical trickery Red Ladder have created a visually enticing cross-generational show designed for young people and their families which will make them stop and listen.
All teenagers make mistakes, its part of growing up; making that journey from a fumbling adolescent to adulthood is supposed to be complicated. Toby is a teenage boy whose feelings of hopelessness are overwhelming, misunderstood by his self-absorbed parents he has come to the conclusion that he will never really be heard. In an attempt to comprehend their son’s past mistakes they enlist the help of Dr. Kevin whose rather unorthodox methods of therapy push them to their very limits. Yet Toby finds solace in the most unusual of places; entrusted with the care of Grandma Lilly as she anxiously tries to uncover the truth about her past, he discovers that despite her dementia, she is the only one who will ever truly listen.
