Remembrance

Bert and Theresa, both mourning dead sons, meet in the cemetery and fall in love. The relationship is complicated by the fact that he is a Protestant and she a Catholic and their children oppose the relationship from the start for Bert's son believes that Bert would rather he had died and Theresa is still married to an imprisoned IRA gunman. It is only Bert's daughter-in-law, trapped in a loveless marriage, who supports the elderly lovers

"An absorbing, powerful and touching play.... A gripping account of the brutality of bigotry that knows no geography.... Remembrance is about how people on both sides succeed or fail at their lives in the circumstances given them and find the faith to continue" ~ N.Y. Times

"A heart breaking, heart lifting comedy, sparkling with wit and ferocity" ~ N.Y. Post
