Julie McNamara

A tender and unique exploration of Alzheimer's impact on family relations. Julie McNamara has both recorded her mother's songs and stories, and filmed and photographed her in all her glory over many years.

Living with dementia? You're having a laugh!

Let Me Stay is a celebration of life and love. McNamara shows through her mother's experience, that Alzheimer's doesn't have to be a tragic withdrawal from life. Think of it as a shedding of all care, with two fingers at the world. A lifestyle choice for some...

Driven by a passion for social justice, Julie McNamara's work focuses on forgotten voices. Her writing comes from vivid landscapes of madness and moves the audience from bleak spaces into a gleeful absurdity.

For ages 12 and over.
