Reclaim Festival: Aunting – A Show in Development

She is holding you, she is listening to you, she is guiding you, she is nurturing you she is Aunting.

A new show that highlights the multifaceted role that Aunties play in our day-to-day lives. This show is about the everyday, the doing, it’s about the Aunting.
