VAMOS Theatre will present the full-mask production Finding Joy at 7.30pm on Wednesday, October 11, in the Richard Whiteley Theatre at Giggleswick.
The story follows Joy, an 83-year-old woman who is feisty, loves to dance and is losing her memory.
Her grandson Danny is rebellious, bright and always getting into trouble.
When Danny decides to look after Joy, they discover a shared playfulness and growing love. But is that enough to face the challenges ahead?
The award-winning production approaches the subject of dementia with humour and humanity, Finding Joy has performed to audiences across Europe and the UK, including a successful run at Assembly for Edinburgh Fringe 2016.
Praised for its consummate full mask skills, engaging storytelling, physical dexterity and emotional insight, Vamos Theatre Company involves and engage audiences with its wordless theatre.
Although the show features no words, the story told through clever visual performance and a vibrant original soundtrack.
Finding Joy, based on life events and created in association with movement play specialists JABADAO, takes the audience through the 1930s, the 1950s and the present day, and is performed on a quirky and intricate set full of surprises.
Suitable for 12 years and upwards, Finding Joy is accessible for hearing and deaf audiences alike.
