In #WeWomen Play Festival 2025, Artemisia Theatre’s feminist play festival at Bramble Arts Loft

Eris believes corpses should be cremated after death. Joanna thinks they should be put on display. So does the rest of the world, which has evolved from mummification to freeze-dried preservation—as long as it’s beautiful. While their lives and loved ones go up in flames, two best friends grapple with their clashing ideas on what it means to respect the dead that surround them.
