An intimate, moving and ultimately uplifting new monologue play. Replay is the story of a woman revisiting her childhood, coming to terms with the significant pain of her past and finally realising that she needs to embrace the memory of her brother in order to move on with her life. Heart, honesty and humour are at the core of this moving play in which Wren explores what it is to grow up, accept loss, be vulnerable and celebrate the past, however painful. This edition was published to coincide with DugOut Theatre's production at the Pleasance Courtyard at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August 2017.

When a fiercely independent, workaholic police officer finds herself on the street where her brother once lived, she is propelled back to her vibrant childhood and forced to confront a tremendous loss.
