About this event
The story centres on Vanessa, a mischievous and charismatic spirit who refuses to accept her death. Her ghost haunts a house in the midst of a move, a space that has witnessed numerous moments and memories. As the family living in the house prepares to leave their old home behind, Vanessa strives to ensure that her legacy remains and that people remember her as a unique and irreplaceable person. The family, each dealing with Vanessa’s loss in their own way, faces its own personal ghosts: unfulfilled desires, kept secrets and complicated relationships.
Through humour and absurd situations, the play explores the complexity of memories and the process of letting go and moving on after the loss of someone close.
