The YOPN Podcast is excited to feature Matthew Moore, an actor, director, writer, and teacher who was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson's in 2019. Moore turned his diagnosis into an opportunity to raise awareness by writing the play 'What I Didn't Say - A Journey Through Parkinson's.' The play offers a front-row seat to the roller-coaster life of a Parkinson’s patient and their care partner. It's a profoundly honest and compelling story that invites us to ask the hard questions about hope, perseverance, communication, and the staying power of real love. As someone who has seen the play, I was blown away by the wonderful production that brings out the feelings and thoughts from a patient and care partner perspective. Join us for an interview with the very talented Matthew Moore and get inspired by his journey. Every performance will be followed by a talkback during which you’re invited to ask questions and express your opinions about the play with the actors, the audience, medical professionals, and Parkinson’s patients.
