A provocative look at the reality and sensuality of ageing through dance and music

Award-winning Norwegian choreographer Hege Haagenrud makes a welcome return with this piece choreographed for four dancers between the ages of 65 to 79. In a world where beauty is defined by youth, the show reclaims stage space for the ageing, sensual body. With a live score composed by Rebekkah Karijord and video footage comprising personal stories. As part of Dance Umbrella's festival celebrating 21st Century choreography across London.
