The Los Alamos Senior Activity Center and the Older Adult Network are proud to present Dementia Man to the Northern New Mexico community. Dementia Man is the award-winning autobiographical story of a man who faces his diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. Created by actor and playwright Samuel A. Simon, this show is changing the dialogue about cognitive decline in America.

In 2021, Sam was diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer’s. Despite the enormous challenges of this diagnosis, Sam has become a powerful advocate through theater using his own experience as inspiration.
