Play about dementia in black community can 'start discussion'
March 21, 2025
|The Guardian
Part of the creative team behind a new play about the impact of dementia on a black British family hope it can provoke a conversation about the disease, which disproportionately affects black Britons.
Miss Myrtle's Garden is part of Lynette Linton's final season at the Bush theatre in west London, and the artistic director said the "beautiful and heart-wrenching" production was an important opportunity to discuss the havoc dementia causes.
A report in 2022 found that black people had a 22% higher incidence of dementia recorded than white people in the UK.
The play will be directed by Linton's successor, Taio Lawson, and is written by Danny James King. Linton said: "Dementia, particularly in the black community and in the Caribbean community, is a conversation that we need to talk about more. It's affecting so many people... let's talk about it now and let's give people the support they need."
