'In 2015 Patrick's mum took her own life. How did this happen? Who was to blame?
'Portraying eight characters from Naomi's life, Patrick uses their real words - drawn from over thirty hours of interviews - to try and answer these questions.
'This intimate and intense solo performance premiered at Adelaide Fringe earlier this year, receiving the Adelaide Critics Circle and Mental Health Awareness Awards as well as two Weekly Awards.
'Brought to you by the creator of Fringe hits 'The Boy, George' and 'DIRT' and directed by Bronwen Coleman (The Actors Studio, NYC), Naomi dives beneath the surface of suburban facades to uncover a community left in anguish. With love, humour and unwavering honesty, it attempts to solve the unsolvable and offers audiences a rare insight into unspeakable tragedy.'
