“My most intense memories really go back
to my childhood, but not so much to the
things that I did: instead I remember the
things I was told.”
We all remember a favourite aunty, uncle or grandparent,
someone who, in our childhood, told us tales that made our
toes curl and stories of wonder. For Lemon, it was Aunt Dan.
A brilliant, intoxicating but dangerous woman who shared all
the most intimate and daring secrets of her decadent, exotic
adult world…
Aunt Dan and Lemon explores the frightening pathways
of influence, the glamour of cruelty and the shadow side
of nostalgia.
The Wallace Shawn season also features The Fever (2 Apr –
2 May) and his new play Grasses of a Thousand Colours
(12 May – 13 June) plus a series of readings to be announced.
