Andre & Dorine
André & Dorine is a poignant depiction of the enduring love between an elderly couple as their lives are disrupted, but not overcome, by dementia.
This non-verbal theatre piece uses movement, puppetry, and mask to celebrate the shared lives of a pair of artists – André with his typewriter, Dorine with her cello – and how they relive and reinvent their love together as Alzheimer’s becomes a permanent part of their relationship.
The play is a rollercoaster ride of laughter and tears, a silent maelstrom of emotions conveyed through masks that masterfully navigates between drama and comedy, life and death, love and oblivion.
A show without borders which, in 10 years, has been performed in over 30 countries worldwide.
