An intimate contemporary story of love, memory and how trauma reshapes human connection. Tender, funny and devastating, it asks what remains when memory slips away, can love survive forgetting?
Forget Me, Please is an intimate contemporary story about love, memory, and how trauma reshapes human connection. Starring Kala Gare and Shannen Alyce Quan, this new work by Sophie Davis, follows Andi and Sasha, who meet unexpectedly in an emergency department while both recovering from brain injury.What begins as a disoriented exchange in triage slowly develops into friendship, then an all-consuming relationship which is built in the aftermath of injury, confusion, and emotional vulnerability. As their bond deepens, the line between care and dependency begins to blur, until Andi’s worsening post-concussion symptoms start to unravel both their relationship and her sense of self.Told through fragmented, non-linear scenes with minimal staging, intimate lighting, and a sound-driven world, Forget Me, Please creates an immersive emotional landscape rather than a linear narrative. Tender, funny, and devastating, the play explores the contradictions of love under strain, its warmth and volatility, its humour and harm. At its core, Forget Me, Please asks what remains when memory slips away and whether love can survive being forgotten.
