The Memory of Water by Shelagh Stephenson at Cambridge Arts Theatre until Saturday Review by ANGELA SINGER WATER apparently has a that it it carries the mark of substances put into it even long after they have been moved Such says author Shelagh Stephenson is the influence of a mother upon her daughters The Memory of Water has three sisters returning home for their funeral arguing bickering and reminiscing in her 1950s bedroom This is how Arthur Miller would have written his family skeleton days if he had been a woman and if he had been a comic It is very funny and every so often chilling The play allows Julia Sawalha to move on from her many famous roles as the giddy girl or the prissy girl and show us her powers for humour and for a grown woman in anguish She had two pieces all her own one comic one of despair which each deserved its own applause if only Arts Theatre audiences did not behave as if they were at a classical music concert where it was not polite to clap until the end This play has all the passion flow and contrast of a piece by Rachmaninov Alison Steadman (as Stage diary ADC Theatre Cambridge: Today until Saturday October 31 at 8pm Dario Fo's Accidental Death
