"Above ground – not exactly a comedy": experiences of aging through improvisation, storytelling and dance
You’re never too old to play, an improvisation and storytelling workshop began in 2019 at Westbeth – home to the arts, and is conducted by Nancy Gabor, colleague and director of Joseph Chaikin, and Paul Binnerts, internationally acclaimed dutch theater director and writer. The workshop was open to anyone over 65 who wanted to play, actors and non-actors alike.
In “Above Ground – Not Exactly a Comedy”, the 10 actors, who have been part of the group since the beginning, share their experiences of aging through improvisation, storytelling and dance. Adding their memories of childhood, recalling moments of happiness and sadness, their stories evolve into 10 vignettes framed by music.
