Inspired by contributions, stories and interviews with friends and family, In and Out of Knowing explores themes of love, ambition, and family through the ever-distorting lens of Henry, a dementia sufferer.
With a timelessly elegant score, music takes us on a journey from present, to past, and back again; carrying with it the memories and moments of Henry’s life, even when he can no longer hold onto them for himself.
From Nick Bond and George W. Parris, In and Out of Knowing is a deeply personal exploration of how we care for loved ones with dementia, and how music can be a refuge along the way.
Starring Scott McClure, Elspeth Day-Collins, Philip Gill, and Freya Parry in a semi-staged concert production brought to you by Nick Bond, George W. Parris and Grace Gammell.
