Missing the Bus to David Jones

Overview

Nursing homes can be haunted places, filled with cobwebbed memories and inhabitants perched between worlds here and gone. They are also places of joy, of old tales retold and new friends made in the closing autumn years.

Multidisciplined company, Theatre Kantanka, have spent the past year interviewing nursing home residents in order to reveal the secrets of the aged care world. Comprising a palette of backgrounds and artforms, the creative team behind Missing the Bus to David Jones brings new light to this part of our community, resulting in a production that visits a small part of the immense variety to be found in the elderly human condition.
