Tea With Mamgu

Synopsis:
I'm just waiting for my friends I am. They'll be here now in a minute. As Jinny's mind starts to wonder we catch a glimpse of her past and her present, trapped between memories of her youth and the knowledge that she has lost her grandson Dylan, or worse that she herself is lost. The production explores what it might be like to suffer from Dementia both as a patient and as a career.
