"Now is the luxurious time when we can grow old".
A true story that recounts the author's life with his partner, as the man he loves succumbs to Alzheimer's disease, posing the question: when dementia strikes can love survive?
The play follows the insidious progression of the disease and its consequences, as well as the difficult decisions that must be made about his partner's future. It gives a unique perspective about the impact of dementia on a long-term gay relationship with the distinctive and very moving inclusion of verbatim dialogue from both parties. At times upsetting, sometimes funny, it's a very human story that resonates with everyone on many levels, and a queer call to action in the fight against dementia
Martin Lewton has written and performed more than thirty plays and performance pieces, including Lord Arthur's Bed, Naked Homo, Billy Budd Sailor, Handel's Cross, Mirando the Gay Tempest, Queer Bodies and Scream Queer Murder. His book Out On Stage - How to Make Queer Theatre will be published by Nick Hern Books later this year.
