Re:membering is a performative exploration of what we describe as the cactus in our bones by Umwelt Collective. A journey back in time through trans-generational trauma and an intimate study of how we cope with the ramifications of our histories and find hope in the present.

‘This performance is truly a wonder and makes you reconsider the connections in your own life.’ - Joanna Letic, 4zzz Radio.
