My wedding dress is the last thing my mother sewed for me. Thirty years after her death, I've unstitched the dress and restitched it with the script of 'Pearls', the show I wrote and first performed in 2018. 'Pearls' tells the story of my mother's life and what it really means to live each day as if it were your last. A meditation on mothers and grief and on the threads that continue to hold us together.
