Retired police detective Jim’s wife, a patient on a dementia ward, has died... but Jim smells a rat. He wants to solve one last murder but he also has dementia. It’s a case for the greatest detective mind. But his will have to do.

At the heart of Forget Me Not is a detective whose tool of the trade - his mind - is failing him, making the most important case of his life something of a challenge to solve. Hilarious and thought-provoking, this is a one-man comedy poetry theatre show that has a lot to say about how we treat and perceive people with dementia. So much so that, since seeing the show, Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust have recruited Rob to work with healthcare staff, using Forget Me Not as a training aid in the areas of compassion and whistleblowing.
