Playing Life

Playing Life...a compelling one-woman show which explores how the character, Louise, has found the courage to move on from her past, making a successful career for herself as a jazz singer.

Playing Life is set into the backdrop of Louise's show at a jazz club. She arrives for work bedgraggled: both emotionally and due to the rain which has soaked her spirit through to the core. As she goes through the motions of preparing to perform she reveals the dark secrets of her stolen childhood, and how a love for jazz has both enabled her to express herself, and relate to, and ultimately understand, if not forgive, the mother who abused her.
