Apple Tart is written and performed by Dolores Mannion
Tuesday 4th to Saturday 8th Oct @ 8pm at Cork Arts Theatre
Apple Tart is a play about and dedicated to Dolores’ mother. “My mother – a woman whose never ending song is in my heart bringing me comfort, happiness and making me complete. I may sometimes forget the words, but I always remember the tune.”
You come to realise that the mind of someone with Alzheimer’s can bring joy and teach you to live in the moment. Although they can no longer make memories, you can still relish the moment you share with them.
TICKETS: €12 https://corkartstheatre.com/event/apple-tart/
