I Was Right Here by Julia Brothers - Filmed on Stage at San Francisco Playhouse
SEE EVENT DETAILS
A new play by Julia Brothers, filmed on stage at San Francisco Playhouse.
Julia Brothers' first solo show, a San Francisco Playhouse commission, is an 70-minute ride on the rails of life. From watching RFK's funeral train pass by as a child with her father, to riding a commuter train to visit her aging mother, each stop brings a collage of memories questioning what is real, imagined or forever forgotten. Fullness and loss appear and disappear along the way, leading her to ask, What is left when memories fade or collide; when the heart sings out and the mind says no? How do we keep memories alive and how do we trust what they were to begin with? Filled with pathos and humor and directed by Padraic Lillis, Julia takes us on a journey of the heart: to discover what it is to love, lose and love again.
