A show about ageing and the passing of time, told through the bodies of two dancers and one trapeze artist, all aged over 65. Their bodies, essential in their artistic expression, marked with memories and the present, explore the limitations of their older self, asking universal questions about aging and mortality.
Drawing from Jean Amery’s book “On Aging: Revolt and Resignation”, this poetic theatre piece challenges preconceptions of aging and time passing, and focuses on a performers’ personal experiences.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Provocation and meditation on the ageing process through a trio of fascinating perspectives.
