A show that I am truly proud of. I have worked with the most brilliant, committed cast to tell this story. Do come along to @ArtsatOFS and see the show this week, we also have a Q&A after the show on Wednesday 29th with a panel of experts!
Amazing last rehearsal yesterday, ready for tech now!
Come and see this brilliant, warm, funny and touching show at the @ArtsatOFS from Wednesday 29th March. Including a Q&A with people with lived experience of dementia after the show on the 29th!
It's funny, and touching, with little bursts of joy as #TheFather is at times set free by his loosening mind. Opening 29/3 with a post-show Q&A with people with lived experience of #dementia & #dementiacare@DementiaUK@alzheimerssoc
The 2014 production of this play opened to huge critical acclaim at the theatre Royal Bath and then transferred to London. It was also made into a film and Anthony Hopkins won an Oscar for his performance.
@BMHProduction bring The Father to the OFS!

We are very excited to announce that we will be holding a question and answer session after the performance of the Father Wednesday March 29th. We have a panel of experts who, along with the cast, will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
Inspired by the work of @DementiaUK and the people they care for through their Young Onset Dementia Advisors. Thanks to Jude and her YODA, Lisa, for sharing their experiences with us as we rehearse for #TheFather. (https://t.co/H05aIfHBnQ) @bmhproduction@ArtsatOFS
The last cast member of The Father for you to meet is the fantastic Alison Graham-Yooll Stibbe
Alison plays Anne, Andrew's daughter. Not his daughter Èlise. Where is Èlise anyway?
Come and see Alison in The Father at the OFS from March 29th to April 2nd.
It's meet a cast member time!
This is James McDougall, James plays The Man in our production of The Father. Who looks like Pierre. Or is his name Oliver?
This is all getting very confusing for Andrew....
Here's another brilliant cast member. Meet Nicky Robinson.
Nicky plays the Woman in our production of The Father. She looks like Anne Andrew's Nurse, or maybe it's his daughter?
Andrew isn't really sure....
Come and see Nicky in The Father at the OFS from March 29th to April 2nd
The next cast member to meet is....Eva Mason!
Eva plays Laura in The Father. Laura is Andrew's carer and likes that he used to be a dancer, or an Engineer. Apparently Laura looks like Andrew's daughter...
The next cast member to meet is.....
Jeff Bowersox who plays Pierre in our production of The Father.
Pierre is Anne's husband, or her partner. Andrew lives with him and Anne, doesn't he?
Pierre is trying to maintain a relationship with a partner who has a parent with Dementia.
Meet the cast of The Father!
This is Angus Fraser, who plays Andrew.
The Father tells Andrew's story, and how he feels he is starting to lose control....
So thrilled to be acting with an amazing cast in this production of The Father. We're crying and laughing a lot in rehearsals. The performances will bring more of the same for audiences too, I'm sure. Come and see! https://t.co/H05aIfHBnQ @bmhproduction#dementia#oxfordtheatre
