Description
Tickets available for purchase here through Sod House Theater.
Sod House Theater is excited to present a playful and impactful new theater piece that addresses the need for awareness around Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease. This piece follows the lives of Don and Myrna, an aging, inter-racial couple who uses their imagination to cope and adapt as Myrna begins to experience symptoms of dementia. Using their imagination Don and Myrna take fantastical vacations to locations all over the world until the lines between reality and imagination begin to blur. This whimsical and compassionate hour-long piece thoughtfully provides insights on the impact of dementia. In addition to the touching and humorous piece, Sod House Theater is partnering with Adenike Ademola, Master of Social Work, who is present at performances to offer knowledge and resources about the aging population, caregiving and dementia with materials for awareness and screening resources after the production.
