Reviews for Remembering You like something I’d Forgotten

“How do you feel about your memories? Like you, the seven characters of Remembering You Like Something I’d Forgotten each have memories they can’t erase, and important details they just can’t recall. With few props or effects for company, their memories are stitched together to try and make sense of it all. Remembering gets bonus points for impressive physical set-pieces and crossing languages convincingly… this is a cute, well-constructed drama that might make you remember that ‘thing’, you know, that ‘thing’, that you’d forgotten.” Channel 24

“A beautifully written and directed piece about memory, identity, and relationships, performed by a talented and committed cast. Sensitive and courageous ensemble work enables multifaceted explorations of remembering and forgetting. Recommended.” Cue (2008)
