Lebensmut trotz(t) Demenz

In the organizer's words:

The whole terribly beautiful life
Matinee concert by Sarah Straub

Her voice is her tool, her heart is her mind. Singer-songwriter Sarah Straub puts the spotlight on dementia at her matinee concert at the St. Pauli Theater.

With her program "Lebensmut trotz(t) Demenz", the musician will give very personal insights into her work with people with dementia and their relatives at the St. Pauli Theater on 28 September - with human warmth, empathetic songs and a dash of cheerfulness.

The musical partner of Konstantin Wecker, who has been spreading wit and charm as a storyteller with a doctorate on the stages of Germany, Austria and Switzerland for 15 years, always gives free rein to her passion and melodies when she gets to the bottom of the terribly beautiful life. In doing so, she encourages and contributes to the fact that joy of life can arise from many a pain.

The doctor of psychology, book author and much sought-after radio and TV dementia expert is organizing this very special concert in cooperation with the Alzheimer Gesellschaft Hamburg e.V. and the state initiative Leben mit Demenz. For Sarah Straub, a dementia diagnosis is by no means the end of life: "Those affected have just as much right to a good life as you and I do, and we should do everything we can to remove the taboos surrounding dementia."

At her concert - a highlight of this year's Dementia Week - Sarah Straub will also be presenting her latest book "Lebensmut trotz(t) Demenz", in which she reports on how we manage to treat people with dementia sensitively and respectfully with stories from real life: "My concert is also a thank you to all those who are committed to people with dementia and stand up for them."

Those affected are also very welcome to attend the matinee event at 11 am.
