A double-bill of plays as part of the Brand New Stages festival.

Directed by Mark Wallace and starring Colin Doyle and Andy Trithardt. Content advisory 14+ for strong language. In Esther Vincent's "Are We Sleeping?", renowned botanist Florence no longer remembers her life's work or recognizes her own children and drifts between determined clarity and the confusion of dementia, while siblings Andrew and Maggie navigate the heartbreaking realities of caregiving. Directed by Esther Vincent and starring Dianne Latchford, Megan Murphy, and Mark Wallace. Content advisory 14+ for mature themes, including dementia.
