After his execution, Walter Raleigh's widow carried his head around in a bag for 30 years. These days, that sort of thing is frowned upon. My Father's Nose is a new play about a recently bereaved man struggling to let go of the past. Literally. It's about parents and children, and how their relationships change over time. About how joy turns to grief, and back again. About memory, how hard it can be to lose it and how hard it can be when you can't.
