DEMENTIA DIARIES: a production in development

Dementia Diaries // (Dziennik Demencji) 

by Maria Jastrzebska

Recent funding from the Wellcome Trust will allow LLL to further develop this locally acclaimed production working with scientists at MARC (Memory Assessment & Research Centre) in Southampton and The Nuffield Theatre, located on the campus of Southampton University, home to a substantial Clinical Neuorosciences department.

Maria Jastrzebska’s moving literary drama tells its story through a series of interwoven monologues exploring the interactions and private worlds of an Anglo-Polish family where both parents are suffering the onset of different types of dementia.

Performed by Polish and British actors, this production combines tenderness with moments of surreal humour and occasional strong language. The production features incidental music by Peter Copley for flute and cello, performed live during the show by the composer (cello) and Anne Hodgson (flute). Forthcoming dates and venues to be announced.

An LLL Production, directed by Mark Hewitt.
