The Best Of is an intimate exploration of memory, grief and the ways we try to hold on to the past in an age of endless documentation. Using audio recording, the piece examines our obsession with capturing moments—questioning what we choose to look back on and how memory can shift and distort over time. It reflects on the fear of forgetting and the power of music to immortalise and recall specific moments in time.
A listening encounter for one audience member at a time. Inspired by the loss of a father, his love for music and a shared collection of CDs.
This show is ticketed for one person to experience at a time, please note if you have an access companion, they are able to join without a ticket.
Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience. There is so much talk about audiences being full of over 60s and why, why can’t theatres get the crowds in to reflect society in general? Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
