When Jane returns from her father's funeral to start clearing the house she grew up in - packing away the family photographs, closing a chapter - she isn't prepared for the untold story she's about to discover threaded through her past, a story that threatens to unravel her relationship with her own children and shake her understanding of who she is. A musical set simultaneously in the 1940s and in the present day, Pieces Of String tells how Jane's father, Edward, came back from the Second World War with a secret that would change his life forever - a secret that he would carry until the day he died. With hauntingly beautiful music and a heart-rending human story, Pieces Of String is a tender, funny, emotionally-charged exploration of how three generations of one family learn to deal with a story that nobody's been brave enough to tell until today.T02078463038Company Perfecty Pitch.
