80.1

In December 2011, The Women’s Creative Company presented their debut show at the CCA.

"When do you stop wanting to be older and start wanting to be younger? When do you become ‘mutton dressed as lamb’? Is age just a number?"

Based upon the participants’ own experiences, as well as interviews carried out throughout the city, this production presented a collection of creative responses to being a woman getting older in a society increasingly obsessed with youth.

Created by The Women’s Creative Company with Catrin Evans and Rachel Jury.

Performer

“I loved the strong female cast and female perspective; the ease of discussing issues that aren't normally addressed in mainstream theatre; the fact it was spoken honestly and articulately from the women themselves”.
