Artist talk following 'BABA'

In the middle of the night Baba climbs from her nursing home window and wanders the dark streets. The play tinkers between the severity and the comicality of dementia. After the performance, the audience can continue to discuss this sensitive issue with the artists.

How can a sensitive issue like dementia be dealt with? How do the artists show different sides of dementia? After the play, the audience has the opportunity to talk with them about the performance and the issues it deals with.

About the performance:

'Baba'

Unbeknownst to her, Baba’s brain is rapidly decomposing and now resembles a rotten cauliflower. In the middle of the night she climbs from her nursing home window and wanders the dark streets until she finds herself sitting and waiting in a Laundromat. Told through mask, puppetry and accompanied by violin and sounds, the play tinkers between the severity and the comicality of dementia, the overlapping of reality and delusion and neurobiological destruction. Who is this orchestral conductor of chemical reactions that manipulates its victims, all while reclining on a fleshy lounge, in the safe haven of one`s brain?
