Remembrance

A newcomer to playwriting in her 70s, Patricia Goodson depicted a group of now-elderly fairies and other fantasy characters in her debut play, 2023's Aging is Not a Fairy Tale. Now she returns to Theater for the New City, and to questions of senescence, with a more realistic drama: a look at the physical and emotional tolls of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease, inspired by her own experience with her mother. Joan Kane directs.
