Scottish Opera, December 2022.
Glasgow & North Lanarkshire Community Care Tour: St. Columba's R.C. Church, Glasgow ParkSprings Care Home, Motherwell Kirknowe Care Home, Wishaw Devised with the company for an audience living with Dementia, As The Seasons Turn takes place over the course of a day, of a year, and of a lifetime. While the show follows the life of Jane, our main character, from birth to death, each piece is a stand-alone episode that highlights the various joys and challenges all of us face across different stages of our lives. Starting and ending at midnight on New Year’s Eve, we are taken on Jane’s journey across the clock, the seasons, and her life – from a spring morning gaining independence learning to walk, a hot summer afternoon spent at her school fête, to a delightful evening with her old flame at a winter ball. As the Seasons Turn makes the familiar marvellous, evoking memories across time and celebrating everyday defining moments that we all face across our lives CAST Imogen Bews Martha Brown Joshua Campbell Helena Engebretsen Luke Francis Elinor Gent Ruaraidh McBain Anna Sophia Montgomery Anne de Putter Mollie Quigley Maria Wotherspoon CREATIVE Conductor - Chris Gray Director - Flora Emily Thomson Set & Costume Design - Finlay McLay Company Repetituer - Karen McIver Company Stage Manager - Anne Page |
