Tonight i had the amazing opportunity of watching the Open Clasp Theatre company present 'Swags and Tails'. It was out of this world..and took the audience on a range of emotions, from humour to sadness and power.
The Background of the Play:
Meet Gloria, her past eroded during years living in dementia units, Mary, the care-worker getting it from all angles and housebound Lillian, locked in her own spare room with only 8 bottles of Sloe Gin for company. Faced with the closure of their day centre will Ellen and Marlene unite and make a last stand?
What a fantastic way of engaging today's culture and changing the stigma associated with dementia!
If you haven't managed to see 'Swags and Tails' - there is still time!!!
