Wishes Fulfilled

Free

Wishes Fulfilled is a powerful play aimed at helping us to understand how to have the death we choose.

Using people, puppets and humour, it explores the complexities of fulfilling the wishes of a dementia patient at the end of their life. Among the hard conversations there’s also joy, love and beauty to be found at the most difficult of times.

Followed by an after-show discussion.

The play is coming to two community venues in Sheffield this May, brought to life by AZ2B Theatre, a company that creates theatre in health and education aimed at impacting change.

5 May – The Arbourthorne Centre
