Engage: Elders

A weekly theatre group for older people to connect and create.

Part of Theatre Royal Bath’s Engage Programme.

Ever dreamed of wearing purple every day? Want to learn to spit? Do you spend your pension on Brandy?

Is this what you hoped being Elder was all about?!

Engage Elders explores the experience of being an Elder in today’s society. A creative atmosphere and space to explore the playful, the humour and the endless possibilities of older age and a chance to reveal hidden truths and illuminate limitless dreams.

Working together using devising techniques and creative writing skills. Free tea and coffee provided.

Led by Caroline Garland.

For ages 65+. Everyone is welcome - no previous theatre experience necessary, only life experience!

Past Performances:

Us, Sun 26th May, 2.30pm @ Theatre Royal Bath.

What the elders say…

“Interesting content with a group of likeminded people of a similar age. An opportunity to do something completely different.”

“Exploring your creativity. Liberating. A different experience to work with your peer group. Enriching. Fun!!”

“We love everything you do with us Caroline!”

The Engage programme is kindly supported by the Beryl Billings Charitable Trust.
