Who Cares: The Caregiver Interview Project

Based on interviews with local colleagues in the theater community, elder justice advocates, and close friends whose lives have been disrupted – but also transformed – by unexpected caretaking for loved ones contending with memory loss, Who Cares: The Caregiver Interview Project is the World Premiere story of evolving relationships within a multi-generational, caregiver support group. A fusion of verbatim testimony sprung-to-life to reveal dramatic confrontation, Sister Sledge dance breaks, and a group leader’s journey to sustain the love of a valiant sister facing debilitating challenges, Who Cares is frequently funny, always intimate, and powerfully informed, moving from church basement, to comedy club, to rock-star book event and beyond, exposing fault-lines within some families, unbreakable bonds in others, and moving friendships between strangers forming newly generative communities of care.
