Bruising image4000 Days 
by Peter Quilter

directed by Charly Sommers

 

Tickets Available Soon

Michael wakes from a three-week coma to find two people at his side: his sharp-tongued mother, Carol, and his devoted partner of ten years, Paul. Carol and Paul are united in two things: their dedication to Michael, and their loathing of one another.
They soon discover Michael remembers nothing of the last 4000 days – and therefore, nothing of Paul. Paul must now fight to bring Michael's memory back while Carol’s on a mission to remove him from their lives completely.
While grappling with his fractured identity, Michael begins painting a vibrant mural across his hospital room wall — a vivid expression of grief, longing, and the search for the man he used to be... not the stranger he’s become.
