"Forgetting"

A man wakes up to find out that he's dead with only a stranger there to greet him. As he struggles to remember the life he left behind, he discovers there are some things — some ones— not so easily forgotten.

Forgetting is written by playwright Jillian Leff and directed by Breahan Eve Pautsch .
