Back In My Day….
Back In My Day….
In a care home for the elderly, memories distort. The stories of the past mingle with an imagined future, the side effects of medication manipulates reality, whilst daydreams, nightmares and TV images add to the confusion.
A wide range of theatrical vignettes presented by the Diploma in Physical Theatre Practice will take you on a journey of lifetimes.
