    Jamie, once a talented sommelier, is spiralling. After a difficult year, her sister encourages her to start anew – how do you begin again when letting go feels utterly untenable?

    Meet Jamie. 

    Jamie knows wine. But she won't drink rosé. She can't. Instead she's drinking bottle after bottle of cheap red wine, her preferred chaser for an ever increasing dose of Prozac. Whatever will help her to bury what needs burying while still maintaining base functions... like baking a loaf of honey and oat bread. Or taking a walk in the rain.

    But she is trying to dig her way out. And maybe really, truly confronting the sordid, the wondrous, the painful things that brought her here... maybe that is just the rope she needs.

    Let her tell you her story. 

    Scent is a solo show about the iron grip of grief, the unwieldiness of love, and the joy and the pain of remembering. See it first, in these pre-Edinburgh Fringe previews. 

    Written and performed by Stacey Cullen. Directed by Erin Boyes.

    “It means so much to be working at CPT, it’s such a good opportunity to work in a professional environment at my age. I didn’t think that was ever going to happen and it means the world to me. It’s really going to help prepare me for my future and where I want to go”
