SHOWTIME_ The Father with Damian Jones

📍Williamstown Little Theatre

Christopher Hampton’s translation of Florian Zeller’s masterpiece provides an intimate glimpse into the disorienting world of André, an elderly man grappling with dementia. Set in his Paris apartment, the play artfully blurs the lines between reality and confusion, inviting us to experience the world through André's eyes. The play is a powerful exploration of the impact of dementia on identity and relationships, taking a profound and sometimes disconcerting journey into the human mind's fragility.

Damian Jones makes a welcome return to the WLT stage having last been seen as Leo Bailey in Mr Bailey’s Minder in 2018. An acting veteran with over 30 years experience, Damian’s recent roles include Max in Last Cab to Darwin (Sherbrooke), George in Life After George (Peridot) and Fire Chief in The Guys (1812 Theatre). In recent times Damian has focused more on directing, with recent productions at Malvern, Mordialloc, Peridot, Encore and Sherbrooke. However, the role of André was an irresistible challenge and we are delighted to see him back on the WLT stage.
