Workshop-performance offered to amateurs over the age of 55.

This workshop culminated in a show presented on 5th and 6th may, 2017 at the MPAA Saint-Germain with twenty performers.
A weaving together of memories on a stage beyond space and time. 24 senior actor-performers lend their voices and their life stories to a collective composition of theater, music and dance, with improvisation playing a central role.

The choir allows for a juxtaposition of words, melodies and stories that evolve and change from one evening to the next. Much like us…

"My soul is a hidden orchestra; I know not what instruments, what fiddle strings and harps, timpani and drums, sound and clash inside of me. I only know myself as a symphony."
- Fernando Pessoa
