Blank Tiles - Adelaide Fringe
SCRABBLE World Champion, Austin Michaels (played by Dylan Cole) knew over 200,000 words. Then he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.
Since then Austin has been in a race against time to document his memories, his greatest achievements, before they fade from his mind and the world forever. Once the toast of the board game world, Austin's life was full of bottomless champagne and endless parties. But now it's Nescafe and doctor's appointments as he spends his time searching for the right words.
Let Austin tell you his story... If he can remember...

I thought this one man play was brilliant. Dylan Cole's acting is wonderful. The script and delivery kept me engrossed. I thought he really understand the pain and effects of Alzheimer's. A sad topic but a great experience.
