“It’s funny what people do and what they tell. We’re all hiding bits of ourselves. The bits we’re not proud of. I can see that now.”
It’s Friday night and Franky is back at her local pub for the first time in years. Pints are poured, Motown music drifts from the tinny speakers, and karaoke starts at eight. It’s reassuringly familiar. Like nothing’s changed.
But, haunted by grief, Franky’s family are quietly unravelling around her. Her dad is hiding himself away, and buried family secrets are leaking through the cracks in every room.
A bittersweet, tender exploration of the long tail of grief and the fickleness of memory, Heart Wall asks where we go when the walls start closing in and home has become somewhere you don’t know.
Heart Wall was co-commissioned with Oldham Coliseum.
