THE FISH BOWL
Fish Bowl Productions

Venue: Nautilus Arts Centre - Theatre
How does a person with Dementia experience the world? How can we better connect with people in the often challenging environment of aged care? The Fish Bowl is an award-winning experimental theatre piece exploring themes of communication, ageing, and identity through the real-life stories of people living with Dementia in a South Australian memory unit. “The Fish Bowl” is a metaphor for the voyeuristic, circular nature of the daily routine for people living in aged care and those that work alongside them. The play celebrates the rich character’s you find there, the wisdom they impart, and the ways in which carers and nurses can find creative new forms of communication. In 2022 The Fish Bowl won the BankSA Award for Best Theatre and Physical Theatre and the Holden Street Theatre Award at the Adelaide Fringe.
