Theatre Gargantua

IMPRINTS
Written by Michael Spence
Directed by Theatre Gargantua Artistic Director Jacquie P.A. Thomas

Theatre Gargantua, in association with Factory Theatre, presents the world premiere of IMPRINTS, a fantastical new play that takes audiences on a visceral exploration of ancestry, genetic memory and ghostly inheritance in the company's trademark highly physical style. Directed by Theatre Gargantua Artistic Director Jacquie P.A. Thomas, IMPRINTS runs November 11 - 26 (previews from November 9) at Factory Studio Theatre.

IMPRINTS tells the fantastical tale of Lily, a woman haunted by the ghosts of her ancestors While undergoing an experimental procedure for an incurable disease, she is inadvertently transported down a very peculiar rabbit-hole. There she encounters the ghosts of her genealogical past - and discovers alarming keys to her present.

Inspired by current theories of genetic memory – and taking them further in a fascinating mix of science and fantasy – Dora Mavor Moore Award-nominated playwright Michael Spence explores the ghosts of our ancestral past by imagining them as existing within our genes. IMPRINTS features an acting ensemble of Stephanie Belding, Cosette Derome, Conor Green, Ron Kennell, Kat Sandler and Michael Spence.
