This powerful, evocative play deals with a subject that is ever-more relevant in our aging society: dementia. The play is written from the perspective of Andre (the father) and invites us to see the world through his eyes. Sometimes confusing, sometimes annoying but nearly always correct … in his view. So-called reality is altered depending on your viewpoint.

Written with a wonderful insight into the way in which dementia affects us all, this play is humorous, moving and ultimately thought-provoking.

The play is approx. 90 minutes. There will be a Q&A session after each performance with a dementia care professional joining the cast on stage. We hope you will join us to get answers to some of the questions that will be raised by this production.
