Age is a Stage
Now celebrating its sixth year of positively impacting the lives of older adults in Brighton, Hove, and West Sussex, Age is a Stage has been actively reintroducing theatre into people’s lives.
The workshops are led by Chris Cresswell, who brings over 40 years of experience in teaching and performing in theatre, cabaret, circus, and film. Chris advocates for the essential role that comedy and theatre skills play in promoting healthy ageing and combating loneliness.
Our weekly interactive drop-in drama workshops in Brighton and Shoreham-by-Sea warmly welcome anyone aged over fifty. These classes offer a creative outlet, fostering playfulness and building new connections among participants. Beyond the joy of performance, theatre skills can enhance memory and boost mood in later life.
Voodoo Vaudeville
Voodoo Vaudeville the ethos of old-style Berlin cabaret with English theatrical flair, this extraordinary show offers a defiant mix of twisted cabaret, character comedy, deviant dance, and bizarre cinematography.
Hosted by a sardonic conferencier, the cast includes dancers, musicians, comic performers, and ethereal puppets, all set to entrance, entertain, and captivate the audience with their vaudevillian versatility. Featuring dances from the dark side, subversive songs, tragic pop operas, sinister mime artists, darkly comic characters, uncomfortable questions from mutant puppets, and inspired improvisation, all underpinned by the music of your dreams, this show has something for everyone. Variety has just risen from the grave!
