In honor of Mayo Clinic Hospice celebrating 45 years of service to Southeast Minnesota, in collaboration with Danger Boat Productions, the Naeve Health Care Foundation, and the Mayo Clinic Dolores Jean Lavins Center for Humanities in Medicine, invites the community to attend “End-of-Life: Live and Unscripted.”

The event will be held at the Marion Ross Theatre from 6 to 7 p.m. March 27, with doors opening at 5:30 p.m.

This unique improv show aims to bring the community together for an evening of laughter and learning. Attendees will gain insights into advanced care planning, important end-of-life care considerations and ways to support the community during end-of-life stages.

Thanks to the generous support of the Naeve Health Care Foundation, the show is offered at no cost to attendees and can be reserved by contacting the Marion Ross Theatre at 507-377-4371.

Amy Stelpflug, volunteer coordinator at Mayo Clinic Hospice, shares, “I hope this event helps inspire people to not just have the conversations with others about their final wishes, but get their wishes documented legally so they can be honored. I also hope this show encourages people to volunteer for our hospice program. Volunteers are a vital part of our practice. They provide animal-assisted support, Veteran to Veteran connections, facilitate our grief support groups, provide companionship and respite to our hospice patients and assist in our offices with various projects.”

The event promises to be both educational and entertaining, with Danger Boat Productions facilitating engaging conversations through improv and dialogue with subject matter experts.

While the show will not make fun of death or grief, it will humorously address people’s general avoidance of the topic.

Join Mayo Clinic Hospice for an evening that is sure to be enlightening and inspiring.
