"The recovery of a memory is a present day activity.
It’s not the past. Memory occurs in the present."
East Berlin, 1990. The wall has just been pulled down. A man arrives at the flat of his grandmother with awkward questions about the past. Meanwhile, a generation later, in Bethlehem the Israeli security barrier is going up.
Told by a company of actors through tense, sometimes painful, scenes, Memory is a new play which brings the past and present together in an intimate exploration of division, destiny and memory.
Jonathan Lichtenstein is a Welsh dramatist whose most recent play The Pull of Negative Gravity won an Edinburgh Fringe First for innovation and outstanding new writing before transferring to New York.
