So Much to Tell You: The Play

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

I don't know what I'm doing here. Well, I do really. I have been sent here to learn to talk again. Sent here because my mother can't stand my silent presence at home. Sent here because of my face.

She watches; she dreams. She sees more than they realise. She has worries and fears, hopes and desires. She is troubled; she is angry. Above all, she is lonely. She may be someone you know. She may be you.

In So Much to Tell You, she tells her story β€” with humour and insight, with sensitivity and strength, with painful honesty. You will never forget her.
