Cass (Shauna Lilly Bogley) spent most of her life taking care of her mother who suffered Alzheimer’s disease, and came to realize that as her mother lost the reality around her, she gained a new one. The hereditary nature of the disease allows Cass to follow her mother into this new reality, a fantasy world they created when she was a child. The family Cass leaves behind watches with wonder and sorrow as she slips into a world of griffins, mermaids, and rhyming couplets. Cass, however, finally finds comfort joining her mother in their shared creation at the border of life and death.

The Comfort to Come is a new play by Whitman College graduate Lisa Battle, and is directed by Whitman College Professor Emerita Nancy Simon. The cast includes: Shauna Lilly Bogley, Kevin Loomer, Nathan Loomer, Kathryn Bogley, and Julie Jones.
