Glue

Glue is a gripping true story by award-winning poet, playwright and performer Louise Wallwein whose ground-breaking work allows us to reflect on our own sense of familial identity.

This comedic live art performance, fuelled by rhythmic poetry, is about getting to grips with our family relationships and, therefore, our identities.

Born, transferred, placed, discharged, returned - what can we learn from a life in care? Having grown up in the care of nuns from the age of nine, Glue tells the true story of Louise Wallwein’s first meetings with her birth mother, three decades after being put up for adoption. The world as she knew it was turned upside down and this is how she learnt to fight and dance.
