The Age I'm In
It’s not how old you are, but how you are old.
Force Majeure’s The Age I'm In is a poignant, witty and revealing portrait of how we inhabit the age we’re in throughout our lives.
Woven together and brought to life by Force Majeure's distinctive dance-theatre language, a diverse selection of Australians aged between 14 and 80 offer astonishingly personal responses to a range of emotive issues, creating an intimate and warm-hearted snapshot of the aging process.
Under acclaimed director Kate Champion, this remarkable performance won the award for Outstanding Performance by a Company at the 2009 Australian Dance Awards. Audio-visual technology, real-life interviews and distinctive physical language combine to take a fresh and humorous look at generational clichés, family interactions and the complexity of human relationships.
‘…one of the best things I’ve seen this year.’ Sun-Herald, November 2008
‘…there is an overwhelming sense of universality that elements of what is being expressed could apply to almost any era in many languages.’ The Sydney Morning Herald, November 2008
