No taboos. No sacred distance. AFTER ALL takes death head-on - and transforms it into theatre, dance and razor-sharp comedy. Blending stand-up, autofiction and performance, Solène Weinachter reenacts funerals, including her own, dismantling the solemn aura surrounding mortality. 

A French artist long based in Scotland, she guides audiences through an irresistibly funny and deeply moving meditation on grief, mourning rituals and the stories we invent to live with loss, all infused with British humour and fearless self-irony.


 

« AFTER ALL souffle le chaud et le froid, les rires et les larmes, la belle danse et le bon théâtre. Et c’est sur ce fil-là, celui sensible et fragile de l’entre-deux qu’elle livre un spectacle pas du tout morbide sur la mort. »
