Stage actor Bob Powers debuted his one-person play Chasing Rainbows: una storia di amore, perdita e ricerca di uno scopo with two performances on August 19 and 20 at the Coho Theater in Portland, Oregon.
Powers wrote A caccia di arcobaleni in honor of his husband, Donald, who was diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia in 2013 and died in 2021. Act I shares how Bob and Donald fell in love with the language and culture of Italy, before recounting Donald’s diagnosis and experience with PPA in act II.
The show was a success, attracting audience members from across the country and being nearly sold out on both nights. Ticket proceeds from the play raised nearly $15,000 in support of AFTD’s mission.
Powers is set to perform A caccia di arcobaleni again at the Clocktower Cabaret in Denver, Colorado January 18.
Bob Powers was a speaker at AFTD’s 2022 Education Conference, joining a panel to discuss the diverse experiences of care partners. A video of the panel can be found on Youtube.
