Claire Galvin Stars in Dublin Drama Production 3rd – 5th March 2015

"Sing what's gone so it won't be." This is not a story about losing someone, but the bit afterwards when they’ve just been lost. It’s not CSI, but it is a kind of forensics; a putting together of memories to try and make sense of it all. Who was he to you? Who was he to your mother? Who was he to his mother? It's about family, it's about love in the absence of the loved one. It happens to us all, and it doesn't unhappen; but you can come and share the story so it won't be forgotten. Written and Directed by Dylan Coburn Gray Cast: Claire Galvin
