Dying Matters Week 2024

A personal note - Duncan Passmore who is offering his piece “Grief’s Sister” at the Dying Matters event in Totnes has set up a gofund me page. We would like to share this with you. Please do donate if you feel to. With much gratitude, the team at Dying with Grace.

“A little over a year ago, this most precious and beautiful of souls left us for pastures new. We love him deeply and miss him terribly. By way of staying sane in the wake of his absence we are building him a boat of gratitude and love.”

Playback Theatre engages people in a kind of creative conversation on a theme. A conductor will talk to the audience and ask for a response. The actors and musician will then ‘playback’ whatever has been shared in a way that reflects the tellers’ experience. This can be poignant and powerful, funny, courageous and moving. Each performance is unique to the day depending on what the audience share. One story will answer another and in this way a depth of understanding is felt by all present.
