Toronto: Hart House Theatre presents “The Last Piece” in concert November 7-9
Tuesday, August 27, 2024
Hart House Theatre is thrilled to present the brand new Canadian musical The Last Piece in concert this fall.
Created by award-winning composer Shreya Jha, The Last Piece follows Amara, an elderly woman coping with her ex-husband Andrew's recent Alzheimer's diagnosis.
When Andrew suddenly reappears in Amara's life, the two begin to re-hash their memories of their 20-year marriage, attempting to reconnect to their past and stall Andrew's worsening condition. As they recount the stories of their meeting and relationship, Amara is left to reckon with her unresolved feelings surrounding their split, and her fear of progressively losing the man she loved most.
The Last Piece highlights the withstanding bond of familial love, the subjective nature of our recollections, and how much of ourselves are made up of the fragile memories we hold.
