The Vessel is a deeply moving and compassionate journey into the life of Mary, a woman in the palliative stages of dementia. Through fragments of memory and feeling, Mary shares her story — one shaped by love, loss, and the quiet moments that linger long after words begin to fade.
This intimate new work gently explores the complex world of aged care, the emotional weight carried by those who give and receive care, and the small acts of tenderness that can offer comfort in the most uncertain of times.
The Vessel invites audiences to reflect, remember, and connect. It’s a heartfelt story for anyone who has cared for someone, watched a loved one change, or wondered what it means to truly be seen.
A nice way to spend your evening, it leaves you with warm feelings.
