EDGE

A probe into the lives of oldagers, people over fifty. The leading protagonists are people who find themselves to be "everyday experts" - oldagers with their past and ideas of the future. These are brought on stage by means of authentic materials, movement, and film footage - whether original or made for the production. The project follows the principle of the so-called devised theatre, a collective piece created without any original text or screenplay.

Edge symbolizes the transition time between active life and seemingly passive old age. Edge opens a range of tabooed themes connected with aging, transformation of sexuality, body image, and loneliness. Edge is a theatre form on the border of documentary and fiction.
