About this show

A solo performance about the fact that time keeps going. Using a camcorder video she took on the last day she lived in Canada in 2005, Deborah tries to re-insert herself into the frame. Initially performed in Edinburgh in a video store in 2010 as part of Forest Fringe, it was shortlisted for a Total Theatre Award for Innovation and won a Herald Angel. This is a rare revival for the Forest Fringe Shedinburgh takeover, bringing the show back to Edinburgh, 16 years on. This will be a stripped-back version of the hit show.
