““In shaping a portrait of a mother with Alzheimer’s disease and the angry, impotent daughter who cares for her, the young composer Zach Redler has written a score that follows the patterns of minds grasping, often in vain, for clarity, conviction and lost time.”
“What’s most striking about “The Memory Show” is its ability to grasp and translate the elusive into song...It’s when “The Memory Show” sings that it transcends the expected and achieves a haunting originality.””
