Memory Palace

Mee, Charles L.

A man sits at a café table, outdoors. He is dying. And, as he speaks of his loss of powers, the odd things that are happening to his eyesight, his sense of balance, the occasional painful spasm in the sole of one of his feet, his life passes before his eyes in the form of dancers and musicians and small children. And, in the end, we don't notice when he leaves the stage and life goes on without him. [8-9 actors]
