ANATOMY OF A SUICIDE
Presented by Metro Arts
By Alice Birch | Directed by Catarina Hebbard
This is a story of family, mental health, love, strong women, supportive men and so much more in between.
Not just a work about suicide, this heart-warming work investigates the hereditary nature of mental health specifically related to post-natal depression. Across three generations of women, we live their love, loss, grief, laughter and ultimately death.
Ten actors on stage across three eras; this is a big story told intimately.
★★★★★ “A rich, haunting, technically dazzling script.”
