I co-own and operate a small assisted living home in Pittsfield, NH (U.S.A.). We consistently seek ways to improve upon our senior activity program, providing a diversified balance of a purposeful and enjoyable time of recreation, crafting, exercise and others to reach all of our residents. I must say, it's been a challenge. This past October I began researching options online and came across your site, subscribing for a year to see what you were all about. Let me tell you, you have not disappointed! Your site is a priceless resource that we are extremely thankful for. We find a significant increase in resident participation and look forward to the new ideas that each month brings. Our residents love the changes!

*Residents in performing arts*
At the moment, our facility has a resident that used to perform in the theater doing plays, and we have been trying to get him to do activities but he refuses every single time. The other day, I asked him if he would be interested in reciting a part of a script with me, and surprisingly, he said yes!
So the idea would be to get a short script for two people, preferably between a male/male, or a not-too-romantic female/male haha.
If any of you know any play that would be good for this, please let me know!
