SUMMARY:Shelf Life: A Big Read Storytelling Event
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nPresented By\nDavid Wayne Reed\n\n\n\nShelf Life was a popular show-and-tell storytelling series at The Brick hosted by writer and director David Wayne Reed. Throughout its five-year run\, the stories at each event were sparked by an object and followed a theme\, such as winning\, time\, and unwanted gifts. \nAs part of Big Read 2025\, a free\, city-wide reading and public engagement initiative of the National Endowment for the Arts\, Shelf Life returns with a focus on soma\, or the body\, exploring how we live in our bodies\, how we relate to our physical selves\, and how our bodies carry us through the world. \nThe event features five new stories from Kansas City-based creatives\, including Reed\, Big Read featured author Rebekah Taussig\, musician and amputee advocate Billy Brimblecom\, actor\, choreographer\, and director Vanessa Severo\, and visual artist and educator Kathy Liao. \nThere’s a “power of sharing one’s own story on stage\,” Reed says\, “and the palpable empathy … from the audience.” \nASL interpreters at featured presentation.

SUMMARY:OCTA's production of The Father
DESCRIPTION:OCTA is a 501c3 organization that began in 1973. Through the strength and dedication of our community and the help of our invaluable volunteers\, we continue to share high-quality\, thoughtful theatre with Olathe and the greater Kansas City area. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Father is a critically acclaimed play by French playwright Florian Zeller\, translated by Christopher Hampton\, that explores dementia through the disorienting experience of its protagonist\, André\, a retired dancer. The play uses a fragmented\, non-linear structure\, with shifting characters and settings\, to mirror André’s confusion as he struggles with memory loss and questions his reality\, leading to a poignant and heartbreaking look at aging and family dynamics. It premiered in Paris in 2012 and has since been staged internationally\, winning numerous awards\, and was adapted into a successful 2020 film starring Anthony Hopkins and Olivia Colman.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKey aspects of the play\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlot: \nAn elderly man\, André\, resists his daughter Anne’s help as his memory deteriorates\, leading to a confusing reality where people and places change\, and he questions who he can trust.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStructure: \nThe play is a “tragic farce” that uses repetition and shifting perspectives to create a sense of disorientation for the audience\, making them experience André’s confusion firsthand.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThemes: \nIdentity\, memory\, aging\, the parent-child relationship\, and the cruelties and complexities of love.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCharacters: \nThe roles of Anne and her partner are played by different actors throughout the play\, further disorienting both André and the audience.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nImpact: \nIt is praised for its powerful and empathetic portrayal of dementia\, making the experience accessible and deeply moving for the audience.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFilm adaptation\n\n\n\nZeller co-wrote and directed the 2020 film adaptation\, which won Academy Awards for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Actor (Anthony Hopkins).
