As part of the 2027 High Performance Rodeo


What does compassion look like when answers fall short?

In Don’t Give Up On Me, Dad, writer and performer Andy Jones shares a deeply personal story of love, loss and the search for understanding.

With honesty, compassion and his trademark humour, Jones reflects on his son Louis’ journey through mental illness and the challenges of navigating a healthcare system struggling to provide the support people need. This deeply human one-person performance transforms grief into a powerful call for connection, empathy and change.

Heartbreaking and unexpectedly funny, Don’t Give Up On Me, Dad reminds us of the importance of listening and showing up for the people we love, even in the moments when we don’t know what to say.
