About Sense of Loss

Listed Under Theatre Events / Nights Out Events

Immersive Theatre

Death. It comes for all of us, eventually. We often think about this reality but barely speak it. Over 180,000 people deal with visual impairment in Scotland, a fact which is rarely thought about or discussed. VICS are combining these two facts and exploring death through the lens of visual impairment in their new production Sense of Loss.

Follow Kirin as she parties with friends and you, the audience, and reflects on her struggle with losing her husband as it nears the 10 year anniversary of his death. Including real diary entries from that fateful time, moments of human connection and some witty dialogue to keep the spirits up. Death has never been so entertaining.

Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
