About Fluff
It’s time for Fluff to do the ultimate puzzle… her life.
But Fluff hates puzzles; especially word searches. She can never find the words and doesn’t understand why there’s a half-eaten birthday cake and a woman who keeps visiting her room.
As she navigates her way through her most treasured and darkest memories, Fluff desperately needs to piece together her life; story by story, person by person. This darkly comedic play explores memories and the choices we make in life.
Winner of the Best Theatre Production at the Buxton Fringe 2024, alongside awards for Best Performance and Best New Piece at the Birmingham Fringe 2023. The non-linear plot line allows the audience to feel, firsthand, the devastating effects of dementia, by joining Fluff in her journey to uncover her life’s memories.
Fluff is proud to be supported by the Arts Council England, W3RT, Alzheimer’s Society, Trauma Breakthrough UK, and Herts Musical Memories.
