WAKE - THE RABBLE

Next date: Friday, 25 October 2024 | 07:00 PM to 08:30 PM

WAKE-updated

WAKE is a performance installation by powerhouse experimental theatre makers THE RABBLE, created with an ensemble of older women from the Yarra Ranges.

Part party, part surreal vaudeville show, part conversation and part town hall meeting, WAKE asks audiences to consider the difficult and taboo discussions around aging but also celebrates the gloriousness of these spectacular older women. WAKE embraces connection, the rituals we inhabit as we age and the spaces where we feel most comfortable.

Exploring the ever-increasing hostility towards women’s bodies particularly for older people, WAKE features acts of artistic courage created by the participating women, featuring anything from a ukulele solo to a professional wrestling bout; a Shakespeare monologue to a political speech. In an age of dislocation, WAKE is a work of solidarity.
