Highlights
This life-affirming theatrical production explores themes of love, loss, and closure, adapted from real-life hospice care cases handled by the Buddhist Chaplaincy Service of the Awaken Heart Centre.

Program
"Words to Say Before Leaving" follows the poignant journey of a father who has lost his daughter and a lonely girl who has never experienced paternal love. Brought together by fate in a hospice ward, they are tasked with accompanying patients through their final moments. While helping others conclude their life stories, they find themselves confronted with their own deeply hidden wounds. As we face this inevitable "final lesson," what should we leave behind before we depart? How do we carry our scars, find reconciliation, and continue to live after loss?
Performers
The production features a dedicated cast committed to portraying the fragility and resilience of human life. Each performance includes a post-show sharing session with Venerable Chuan Deng, the Abbot of the Awaken Heart Centre, offering profound spiritual guidance and insights for the audience.
