Welcome to the job you never
signed up or trained for - caregiver

Hi, my name is Dayna Steele. When my mom, Fran Nicholson, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, I had no idea where to start or what to do. Now I do, and I share that information here in a dark comedy play The Woman in the Mirror, the #survivingalzheimers podcast, and the book Surviving Alzheimer’s with Friends, Family, and a Really Big Glass of Wine. We are a community of family, friends, and caregivers.

When it comes to Alzheimer’s if you don’t laugh, you’ll cry

Revolution Stage Company is thrilled to announce the Palm Springs, California premiere of THE WOMAN IN THE MIRROR, a dark comedy about navigating Alzheimer’s with love, laughter, and wine, adapted from Dayna Steele’s best-selling book Surviving Alzheimer’s with Friends, Facebook, and a Really Big Glass of Wine.

Steele takes audiences on an inspirational journey filled with laughter, wit, and the resilience required when facing extraordinary and unexpected circumstances. When her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, Steele began posting online, detailing the family’s alarming, sometimes humorous struggles, turning it into a therapeutic community of support and information encompassing thousands of followers. Steele’s refreshing honesty, laced with biting humor, is a beacon of strength and resiliency. Her play is not only a theatrical triumph but also a living on-stage caregiver’s manual.

“This play reached across the footlights with a shining message of love and hope”
