In this new work, Samara Hersch continues her practice of staging intergenerational conversation as performance, working with teenagers and seniors who will meet for the first time, in the dark. Taking place in a shifting landscape of appearances and disappearances, twilight and shadows, here, the performers ask questions about change, uncertainty and impending darkness. Together reflecting on how time invisibly shapes who we are and who we will become. Through this work, Samara and her collaborators question how the darkness (and the theatre) might reveal alternative ways of gathering and listening to cultivate curiosity, vulnerability, intimacy and resilience.
