I’m Glad I Asked
By: Michelle O’Brian
Duration: 60 Minutes, No Interval
Friday 11th October 2024: 7:30pm
This funny, tender heartfelt, one-woman (and a puppet) theatre show is drawn from workshops with women of all ages and Michele’s own lived experiences with her 91-year-old mother, Gena.
We often hear people say, “If only I asked!” when a parent is no longer with us. Michele was determined to take the many opportunities she had to share with her Mother, to change that.
In doing so she has created a deeply personal, but truly
relatable piece of storytelling theatre that explore the joys, the frustrations, the shared memories, and the love that bind generations together.
A universal tale for all to enjoy. I’m Glad I Asked is written by Michele O’Brien – an actress, award-winning storyteller, arts practitioner, and associate artist at Forest Forge Theatre, and directed by Amy Rose (Green Ginger).
The puppet is created and built by Teresa Grimaldi.
The show runs for 60 minutes without an interval.
