Dementia-Friendly Theatre in Edinburgh
Musical theatre is a fantastic creative outlet for those living with dementia and Deepness Dementia are proud to be involved with bringing that creativity to light. Each of the plays below, as part of our dementia-friendly theatre in Edinburgh, have been written, directed and performed by someone who has dementia or a family member or supporter of someone who does. They're designed, first and foremost, to dispel stigma around what people with dementia can do. Despite their diagnosis, they're still brimming with creativity, talent and passion. See for yourself! You'll be able to see Dementia: The Musical at the Deepness Dementia Arts Festival in Edinburgh, slated for November 2024.
Deepness Dementia Arts Festival is gearing up for November 2024. We're always looking for new acts, plays, films, musicians and other creatives to get involved and share their talent! The best news? If you have dementia or are a family member or supporter of someone who does, it's completely free!
We run local performances and, in addition, each of our plays will be performed at our upcoming Arts Festival. Have a play you'd like to perform? Get in touch and let's talk about it!
