Monday’s Child tells the simple poetic story of the unique bond between a little girl and an old woman suffering memory loss. Together, in a dream-like garden, they sing and dance and dress up, as they joyously explore a treasure trove of memory boxes.

This sensitive, imaginative, yet funny play explores how we collect memories, how these shape who we are, and how they help us to meet the challenges of growing old.

While children fully engage with the characters and adore a succession of colourful surprises, the play also resonates strongly with adults, making this an ideal family show.

“…a sophisticated piece of children’s theatre that will engage young audiences on a variety of levels.” – The Irish Times

“Pure magic! The play is whimsical, fun and full of adventure and allows children and adults to rediscover the mystery in everyday things”
