"Too old for this s***!"- Germany
------------------------------------------
--

In summer 2021, Rachel Erdos together with three Israeli dancers of different ages, travelled to Potsdam, Germany to research "Too old for this s***." Commissioned by Fabrik Postdam.

"Too old for this s***" explores the theme of age through movement and text. How do people of different ages interact and move with each other? How do they discuss certain issues and attitudes? Beginning with the questions of what we are too old or too young for, Rachel plays with the limitations of age. She engages with participants in a process of communication, moving together, and getting to know each other. Each phase of life has its own quality, affects physicality, but also emotional feeling. What are we growing out of, what are we growing into?
During this 3 week workshop, 12 local women met 3 times a week to engage in this dynamic research. Some had professional experience others had never entered the studio before. The age range was from 19-82. At the end of the residency they presented a public presentation.
