Once And For All 

Picture
Once and For All is a performance and community event held inside a local cemeteries and halls created by theatre company Such As They Are.

​Written & performed by Mark Penzak, and co-developed with the cast, it begins with a twilight journey through a cemetery stopping at graves to hear the stories of the people buried there. This event embraces history but is not a history tour. Nor is it about the big stories but rather the small human stories we can relate to.

​The journey is interspersed with theatre, poetry, music, tableaus and contributions by the community.  At the conclusion, the audience and performers enjoy a cuppa tea and a scone, allowing everyone to gather, chat and enjoy being alive.

​Once and For All is affectionate theatre. It looks into the past to understand the present and to view our future with minimal fear and even, a sense of acceptance.
