A Support Group Meeting

There are gaps in Olok’s memory. The world is cold, grey and oppressive. They need their memories. Olok returns after twenty-five years to their hometown to fill in the missing gaps. They must remember. What lurks behind the doors of the Dasgupta household? Who do they want to protect? This new play by emerging playwright Upasana Das explores the experience of trauma, forgetting and the ways family lets us down.
