Christopher Hampton’s translation of Florian Zeller’s masterpiece provides an intimate glimpse into the disorienting world of André,

an elderly man grappling with dementia.

 

Set in his Paris apartment, the play artfully blurs the lines between reality and confusion, inviting us to experience the world through André's eyes.

 

The play is a powerful exploration of the impact of dementia on identity and relationships, taking a profound
and sometimes disconcerting journey into the human mind's fragility.

Warnings: This play discusses issues related to dementia which may be triggering for some.
