Gallery "The Waverly

Play with a laugh and a tear about the ruthless disease Alzheimer's, performed by top cast

Theater icon Anne Wil Blankers, audience favorite Lies Visschedijk and super talent Daniel Cornelissen are together on stage in the Dutch adaptation of memory play Galerie "The Waverly" by currently Broadway's most popular writer Kenneth Lonergan.

In the powerful, poignant and often hilarious play, we follow the final years of a generous, talkative grandmother, Merel, who struggles with the ruthless Alzheimer's disease but still runs a small art gallery. We follow her struggle to maintain her independence and the effect of her decline on her family, especially her daughter and her grandson. Through his eyes, the audience sees the confusion and separation, but also grandmother's optimism and courage. Gallery "The Waverly" is not only a play about memories and loss, but also shows the humor and strength of a family in crisis. Thus, in a hilarious and at the same time heartbreaking way, it makes tangible how a family is shaken and yet manages to hold on to those same shaky people.
