Dancing Wheels will perform Making Memories: A Journey through Dementia, an immersive program that combines performance art with dementia education. The Dancing Wheels Company & School joins forces with hospitals, memory care facilities, facilities for aging adults, and individual caregivers and created Making Memories: A Journey through Dementia (MMJTD) to increase the understanding and recognition of diseases related to dementia and Alzheimer’s. This evening-length program composed of two dance works choreographed by Mark Tomasic (“Proof” and “Three 4 Ann”) includes video documentary featuring interviews of people living with dementia, caregivers, and dementia/Alzheimer’s health care professionals/specialists; plus, audience discussion. The Dance Company of Theatre for All will perform as part of the evening an original piece choreographed by Kim Henry titled "Shadow and Light."
