“It’s good to say what you have to say. Today of all days.”
Every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way, or so the saying goes. This unhappy family has gathered to pay their last respects to Joy’s husband - let’s do a toast!
But not everyone is willing to talk - Joy’s daughter, Anna, is particularly unsure, yet here she is with the eulogy in her hand. How can she summarise who her father was? What will they all choose to remember?
Fresh from their four and five star adaptations of ‘Jane Eyre’ and ‘Antigone’, Brave Mirror presents the first play in a season of new writing. Written and directed by Minnie Cunningham, ‘Cancer of the Blood - A Comedy’ will explore what happens when love, duty, and family are pushed to their limits.
