A Hundred Words for Snow
It's all about a probably extraordinary (given what happens) 15 year old girl's relationship with her probably very ordinary Father, and her compelling desire to scatter his ashes at the North Pole. Improbably, but made wholly convincing, she runs away with a passport and her Mother's credit card...
Gemma Barnett plays the engaging teenager with an ambition, and we all loved her. [Being a one woman show, with overtones of a "rites of passage", combined with the delightfully unlikely heroine reminded me of Lydia Larson's Finding Fassbender in Edinburgh - which I know Rob would have loved also - but sadly, I failed to see any sign of a transfer].
Directed by Lucy Jane Atkinson, this is another wonderful show from the Trafalgar Studios. [Although they will for ever have to go some distance to top The Grinning Man].
