Peter Cockerill combines two characters in this thought-provoking monologue.
This heartfelt journey describes a Grandmother’s demise into dementia. Told from her sons perspective via emails to his Son in North/South Carolina depending on the state of his memory when he writes them.
Ironically his memory of his Mother becomes clearer as the audience witnesses the bittersweet twist that Father is in the first stages of dementia.
The audience is handed a programme when they enter the theatre containing a short brochure about dementia. Well done a very well written piece raising awareness on an increasing issue in an ageing population.
The 11th August was the last performance at venue 36. Check them out at @WoollySheepTC
Looking back at my original biography section on here I can see how far my writing life has gone. With two Edinburgh Fringe seasons behind me and a huge variety of Theatres visited things have grown beyond my wildest dreams.
I now write for my own blog, London Theatre Reviews and Broadway Baby. On top of this I am an Off West End Senior Assessor and throughout lockdown helped turn the Oncomm into a success and watched Scenesaver become a huge success. Recently I was on the panel to vote for Scenesaver production awards. It has been an amazing journey and I am looking forward to the Theatres reopening next week (from 17th May 2021). My original introduction is underneath as a reminder to myself of just how far I have come. Long may it continue.
