A short, gentle guided moment. No pressure, just a space to pause.

The listener is centred. the listener is not told what to feel. The listener is allowed to find themselves inside this five minute piece. Lyrical, but spare - directed, but not commanding - layered but clear.

At the Threshold is a short arts–health monologue that explores Alzheimer’s through time, pause, and listening. Drawing on lived observation, personhood thinking, and the experience of apraxia, the piece focuses not on loss of memory, but on moments where action, recognition, and agreement arrive out of sequence — and sometimes return. Structured around the sound of wind moving through a room, the monologue invites the listener to stand in the space before decisions are made: where consent is not refusal, stillness is not absence, and waiting becomes a form of care. This work sits between theatre, medical humanities, and sound piece. It is an invitation to imagine the other — not as someone disappearing, but as someone navigating changing thresholds of access, timing, and recognition. Listeners are invited, at the end, to close the door if they wish.

The episode also looks ahead to her recognising compressed forms of identity might inform future approaches to documentation, digital health and language based support tools. The role of creativity in this situation is explored.
