In nineteen-ninety-four, the world lost one of its most beloved musicians, grunge icon, Kurt Cobain. Part eulogy, part fantasy, part biography, ‘Aberdeen,’ is an in-the-round conversation with Kurt, about life and death, taking place across Washington, including his hometown, of Aberdeen.

Dark, and surreal, traverse time and space as multi Award-winning comedian and story-teller Cassie Workman races in a desperate bid to save the life of her hero, by attempting to manipulate time itself. Aberdeen is an epic, about loss, music, and memory; an extraordinarily heartfelt love poem, to the voice of a generation.

This performance is now taking place in TechCube 0 (Previously listed as Dissection Room)

"I was captivated from start to finish. Cassie is a phenomenal storyteller... It is a howl of a poem. I was floored"Phoebe Waller Bridge
"It is both a meditation on the nature of depression and an exploration or unrequited love...Out of something bleak, hopeless and irreversible Workman has created a thing of beauty"The Scotsman
