UnRavelled is coming to Philadelphia! Called “An exquisite example of epic theatre,” the award-winning new play from GBHI Fellow & playwright Jake Broder tells a powerful story about the human mind. Experience a journey told through theater, music, and visual art, on stage at Penn Live Arts.

UnRavelled is an award-winning play based on the extraordinary lives of Anne Adams, a brilliant scientist turned painter, and Maurice Ravel, composer of the iconic Boléro. Both were affected by Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD), and their stories reveal a surprising connection between neurological disease and creative brilliance.

“This story defies the typical ‘diagnosis-to-death’ dementia narrative, focusing instead on creativity and hope.”
 — Jake Broder, Creator of UnRavelled
