BY RAE MAINWARING & OMAR KHAN

A BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO WIDOWHOOD is a one woman show exploring the experiences of young, widowed women, loss, and why we don’t talk about death.

Suria has lost her husband (she hasn’t misplaced him or anything - he’s dead.) Join her & the kids in Türkiye, on what will become “the worst holiday ever.”

A trip fraught with new challenges: navigating bad advice, sympathetic head tilts… and the ‘W’ word. But the turbulent dynamics of a newly fractured family aren’t the kind of baggage you can just stow away neatly in the overhead compartment…

Everything about it is great, especially the staff who could not be more helpful.

Superb venue, clean, and the theatre is beautiful. Saw a film for the first time last night, sound and picture were awesome. Highly recommended.
