In Other Words is a one-act play written by Matthew Seager and directed by Jane Richardson. The play follows the lives of Jane and Arthur from their first meeting to Arthur's diagnosis of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. As they navigate their transformation from a happy couple to patient and carer, the music of Sinatra remains a constant, bringing them together and keeping their fading memories alive. The play explores their journey with dignity and sensitivity, highlighting the impact of dementia on their relationship.

The play is a poignant and moving portrayal of love, loss, and the power of music to evoke emotions and memories. With a run time of approximately 75 minutes and no interval, the play is suitable for audiences aged 18 and above, but may contain triggers related to dementia symptoms and diagnosis.
