Here's another king.
Same problem with the three daughters.
Similar "hightened emotionality", reacting without consideration, lashing out.

Not trained in #DementiaCare.
And seeing I need at least informal training if things continue on the current track.
So don't take the following as more than an anecdote.
#TableTopStories on events in their own life and overviews of life-courses are pretty powerful for my elderly relative who is afflicted with #Dementia.
This #Storytelling / #Dramatisation is a generalising of the (bits obvious to me) method of #ForcedEntertainment's #TableTopShakespeare.
So far; good for pair and trio.
Having watched a few #TableTopShakespeare we tried diy freestyle #TableTopStories.
Third performance of the night had a mid 1950s date night with a young woman going with her date from one dance, in his car, to another dance distant from home, and her struggle to get home after losing confidence in her date.
Chatted after, music was listened to.
And then #TheSaints #Stranded played. #Narrative #Synchronicity #AusMusic
20 years from the mid-1950s.

Tonight's #TableTopShakespeare is set to be #Macbeth.
So far we've had,
1. elite power struggle,
2. silly lads professing love,
3. elite power struggle.
None of those had "high speeches" in them that I know of. So I missed them nought.
But,
"Double, double toil and trouble", might be too much like cheese on a pizza.
An absence might subvert the whole deal.
2/?
Stripped of physical and linguistic bigness, something more like #Dance emerges in these #TableTopShakespeare productions.
Repetition at the same and at different scales, symetry, & the dance not being only made from the choices of the dancers are what I could see of dance.
