‘Us bears wear our hearts on our sleeves.
It’s in our design, our instinct, the hands of my stitches shaping me to be perfectly put together for her and only her.
I just hope she likes me.‘

Chloe is about to embark on her very own journey through life, warts and all, but not without the help of a close companion who loves her more than anything else in the world…her teddy bear.

Stitches is a witty and insightful examination of one person’s existence through the lens of their best friend. From birth, through childhood friendships, to seeing what all the fuss about a relationship is, discovering who we truly are with age and ultimately, what we’re capable of becoming.

Writer and performer Jonathan Blakeley, with support from Arts Council England and in conjunction with Alzheimer’s Society and The University of Stirling DSDC (Dementia Services Development Centre), will be running a series of storytelling and creative therapy workshops throughout the run, helping those with the condition and those who care for them.
