Memoriam

What if you could experience someone else's memories? In the near future, tech company Memoriam is able to extract and repackage human memories as immersive VR experiences. When her grandmother Rivka becomes the last living Holocaust survivor, Memoriam employee Rachel sees an opportunity to preserve her memories and safeguard an invaluable piece of history. But as the boundaries between commerce and remembrance begin to blur, the repercussions for their family prove far greater than anyone could imagine. Startlingly funny and deeply moving, Noga Flaishon's play Memoriam is a searing look at the commodification of memory, the legacy of trauma and the stories we pass on. It premiered at the Main Street Theatre in Houston, Texas, in 2025, and has its UK premiere at Southwark Playhouse, London, in 2026.
