The Magic of Ordinary Things

The Show

How do you go on when the people you love die?
If you could see them one more time, what would you say?
What would you want to hear?

Gina Harris got the chance. The Magic of Ordinary Things is a musical memoir — a theatre piece, a dream, a Sufi Tale with original music. It tells the story of how moments missed and things once taken for granted become the stepping stones to a new life. It's never too late.

Written and performed by Gina Harris
Directed by Michael French
