Seventy-Five Years

Sarah tells of her grandparents' lives, past and present - stabbings, alien abductions and dementia wards. From 2018.

Multi-award winning storyteller Sarah Kendal returns with more hilarious, gripping and moving stories.

This second volume of Sarah Kendall's Australian Trilogy, is one show in three parts. A collection of seemingly unconnected stories and memories, which, together, form a meditation on luck, survival and hindsight.

Scrolling backwards and forwards in time to different moments in her life, over the three parts Sarah creates an intricate montage, demonstrating the interconnectedness of life.

In this final part, Sarah tells of he grandparents lives, past and present, stabbings, alien abductions and dementia wards.

We find out why Halley's Comet meant so much to Sarah's dad and we conclude with a story about an astronaut's final trip.
