Older Adults’ Touring Company
Devise. Rehearse. Take it on tour!
We’re delighted to announce the return of our Older Adults Touring Company!
This is an exciting opportunity for older adults aged 55+ to devise their own play alongside our associate artists and share their work community and cultural spaces across London.
Over 12-weeks, participants will be encouraged to explore their creativity, make new theatre together and develop their performance skills, all while creating an original play that reflects their stories and lived experience. Our older adults will be:
- Taking part in creative workshops led by professional theatre makers.
- Meeting new people and making lasting friendships.
- Performing their show to friends, families and a public audience!
At 21, Ellie is still searching for her place in a world she’s never quite managed to fit into. When a long-buried secret comes to light, the promise of belonging feels closer than ever. But as events unravel, Ellie is forced to confront uncomfortable truths about family, identity, and what it really means to find your people.
