The Black Swamp Players will hold auditions for “Not Quite Gone” at the theater at 115 E. Oak St. Saturday, April 1, 10 a.m. to noon, and Monday, April 3, 6-7:30 p.m.
The play by Ethan Woody Brown was the winner of the BSP’s annual playwriting contest.
With the help of a friend, an aging woman experiencing dementia discovers how to remember her past. An earlier version of Brown’s “Not Quite Gone” was part of a slate of student written and directed one-act plays staged in January 2020, his senior year in high school.
The story is a lighthearted approach to dementia and memories. Memories remembered and memories gone. Brown was inspired by some interviews he conducted with residents at a local elderly care facility.
