A darkly comedic 45-minute one-man show, Exhuming Emily, is premiering at the Etcetera Theatre on the 3rd of February, running until the 7th.
The story takes place on a lonely night by the waters of The Mealt Falls, The Isle of Skye. Ex-crematorium technician Monty Bulmer lies fifty feet below the corpse of Emily, who hangs frozen in the icy falls. His legs are broken, his energy is spent, and his hopes of exhuming the body from the ice are ever-diminishing. It would take a miracle to exhume Emily. Tonight, he will pray for one.
Over the course of this monologue, Bulmer contends with his relationship with God and his father, but hardest of all, finally faces the skeletons in his own closet.
Starring James Grimm, the show explores faith, inherited sin, and the worth of redemption.
Exhuming Emily opens at the Etcetera Theatre and will run from Tuesday 3rd February to Saturday 7th February.
Performances start at 19:00. Tickets are £13.60.
