Description Tracing four generations of Stitz men and the loss of generational threads within the family was the starting point. Where do we go when the answers about our past cannot be found? What is passed down? What is inherited? What happens when our indefatigable family stalwarts begin to slip further and further towards the inevitable, or tragically depart too soon? And how to combine this story with the mysterious buzzing world of bees to create a piece of theatre?
Based on a true story, this is the tale of an Aussie bloke, as told through his grandson's eyes.
