Having slipped your fiancé’s mind is not a happy event especially when it’s a permanent condition. In the world premiere of Nora Leahy’s dark comedy, If You Forget Me, her husband-to-be’s memory-disabling accident sends Kate running back to her childhood home to heal. There she must fend off her mother’s self-help pep talks, her sister’s efforts to move her “recovery” along, and an old boyfriend’s attempts to rekindle the flame.
Directed by Lean Ensemble’s Sarah Newhouse, this new play is an exploration of growing up, the nature of memory, and the process of letting go. The show features ensemble members Libby Ricardo and Jenny Zmarzly along with Diego Colon and Tamara Todress who are making their Lean debuts.
