Hi All,
Dad's home had a theatre company visit and do a show before Christmas. The care home manager was a little dubious as they said that they would perform 'The Tempest' but she said it was amazing. Dads home is dementia only and the theatre company involved many of the residents which turned out incredibly stimulating and vibrant. A few of the residents were dressed up and involved in the play and at one point they put out a huge blue sheet and made it into the sea which had and incredible effect.
It sounds brilliant and she could not speak highly enough of the people involved in the group.
If any one is intrested they have a website:
