內容簡介:

《忘》是一齣描述認知障礙症的音樂劇場,透過音樂與文字,呈現箇中情緒起伏。節目由八個文字場景組成,文本由荷蘭唱作歌手史賓偉士撰寫。《忘》描述一位醫生的故事:他多年來治療認知障礙症患者,分享了病人各種悽酸、溫暖、有趣的故事。然而,這位醫生在某天覺察到,自己也開始出現認知障礙症的徵兆。本來只是影響他人的疾病,現在也開始折磨我們眼前的主人公。惡化、困惑、絕望不斷入侵,直到我們失去他,直到他消融在合唱團的歌聲中。

在籌備音樂會的過程中,創作人識別出認知障礙症的不同階段與徵狀一焦慮、妄想、健忘、猜疑、恐慌、迷亂等等。這些元素在節目中都有自己的獨特作用。

Forgotten

Presented by: Hong Kong Arts Festival
Produced by: Netherlands Chamber Choir
Platform: Website

Synopsis: Forgotten is a theatrical concert about dementia, a rollercoaster of emotions,
captured in music and text. The show is composed of eight textual tableaux, with
words by Dutch singer-songwriter Spinvis. Forgotten tells the story of a doctor who
has treated people with dementia for years, relating the poignant, heart-warming and
amusing stories about his patients. But the doctor too becomes aware of the first
signs of dementia in himself. What previously seemed to affect others now afflicts the
person in front of us, as deterioration, confusion and despair take hold. Until we lose
him. Until he is absorbed into the sounds of the choir.

While developing the concert, its creators identified various stages and manifestations
of dementia-anxiety, hallucinations, forgetfulness, suspicion, panic, confusion and
so on. Each of these elements is assigned its own role within the production.
