Forgetting Heledd

This raw and candid one-woman play follows a fearless young carer coming-of-age in the South Wales Valleys. It’s a brutally honest and darkly comic account of a Welsh teenager whose dreams of becoming a doctor are hindered by her commitments to her mother, who has early-onset dementia. Inspired by real-life accounts, the play highlights the struggles of young carers but finds joy in the face of tragedy, celebrating the endurance of an incredible young woman caught up in circumstances beyond her control.
