The Chair
The Place, London 2024
The Chair is a solo performance that delves into the complex emotions of loss, memory, and acceptance. The narrative explores a spectrum of emotions, around the issues of suicide and ends in the realisation of irreversible loss and the harsh truth that some wounds cannot be healed and some absences cannot be filled.
Created and directed by Terry Smith and developed in collaboration with performer Lise Boucon. This carefully choreographed production unfolds without the use of words or music, relying solely on movement and expression to convey a profound narrative.
