After All

Overview

AFTER ALL is a celebration of our vulnerable and courageous existence. Solène Weinachter melds dance, comedy, storytelling and theatre to ask: what happens in the end? 

Although death comes to all of us, talking about it is often a taboo that can leave people holding their grief in isolation. 

Through a series of impassioned re-enactments of the funerals of those she’s loved – as well as imagining her own – Solène attempts to conjure a better sort of space for all of us to be with death, dying and loss.

AFTER ALL is a heartfelt exploration of the different death rituals we have – the ones we’ve lost and those that need inventing – joyously bringing us together to explore the role that dancing might play in healing.

Beyond AFTER ALL
space to speak about death together.
SATURDAY 29 MARCH @Melrose Corn Exchange
This is facilitated time for group conversation to share any experiences, feelings or questions around death. It can host up to 20 participants, who are welcome to discuss any aspects of death and dying that they wish to.
People are welcome to just come and listen with no pressure to speak, and it is open to anyone regardless of whether you have attended the show AFTER ALL or not.
There will be some time afterwards to drink tea together, and for any further conversation if desired.
It is not a space that offers grief support or counselling, but is inspired by and follows in the tradition of the Death Cafe movement (that began in the UK in 2011) and aims to host informal, respectful and confidential space.
Beyond AFTER ALL is free to attend please reserve your tickets HERE.
