The play is a one-woman performance focusing on a girl called Jane. Jane has been sectioned and is in hospital following a suicide attempt. The play follows the conversation that she has when telephoning her mother.
The drama is derived from watching the ebbs and flows of Jane's confessions and emotions as they both try to traverse the situation they find themselves in.
The play is written and performed as a realistic commentary to inform and develop empathy but also inspire some hope.
Join Sticks Gallery on the 24th November for the private view of Dewi Cary's new work, ENDING, comprising a film and photographic work.
