"Never Ending Story" and "Forgotten Futures": Moving beyond Decline/Renewal Binaries in Dementia Care
Malone, Niamh; Miles, Donna
Research in Drama Education, v24 n1 p53-66 2019
'Dis-identifications from dominant models of subject-formation can be productive and creative' (Braidotti 2013, 167). This problematises applied theatre practices informed by received understandings of dementia, and their implications for memory and identity. "Forgotten Futures"(2017) and "Never-Ending Story" (2016-ongoing) refuse those understandings, emphasising future-focused, relational well-being for people living with dementia.
