This play is based on the life of Jacqueline du Pré, the cellist who rose to huge acclaim in the 1960’s until she was diagnosed by MS in 1971.
The drama takes the form of six sessions between Stephanie Abrahams – the brilliant violinist who is diagnosed with MS and can no longer play and is already in a wheelchair – and her German psychiatrist Dr Feldmann who shares her passionate love of music.
The play asks the big question, the one that has occupied the minds of so many tragic writers: how do you go on living when all hope has gone?
