Literary depth meets lived experience
At the center is the book "Courage of Life despite Dementia", in which Sarah Straub connects inspiring life stories with professionally categorized information according to the publisher. This exact mix also shapes the stage format: The concert reading opens a resonant space in which language, voice, and musical condensation make a topic experienceable that often remains too abstract in everyday life.

A topic of societal importance
Sarah Straub heads a dementia consultation at the University Hospital of Ulm and is also active as a singer-songwriter. This dual perspective gives the event authority and emotional tension. The evening promises not smooth entertainment but a serious, warm-hearted encounter with literature, science, and music.
