Love, memory and the power of the unspoken. Using a bare stage, a handful of domestic props and the puppetry that is Handspring's trademark. In the winter of 2036, in a shabby apartment in Port Elizabeth, two old men search for a way to say goodbye after a lifetime spent together. In the perfect summer of 1971, in a very different South Africa, their handsome younger selves search for the courage to fall in love. And poised halfway between these two stories - one imagined, one remembered - their real-life counterparts bear witness to both the beginning and ending of an incredible journey.T1581483846Producer National Theatre.
