Members of Grand Gesture, Dance Theatre artists

The 'Critical Moment' programme brings four companies together for one inspiring, quirky and thought provoking evening of dance theatre, produced, created and performed by older dance artists.

Function of X, a new company formed by choreographer and curator of 'Critical Moment', Linda Foster presents 'In Search Of....' Three generations of women confront their internalised ageist attitudes and look for what unites them in a society that seeks to divide and oppress.

Edgefield Dance, a company of dancers living and working in Suffolk under the artistic direction of Deborah Watkins Jones, presents 'Pieces of Blue Cina', a work that deals with memories of critical moments. Do we hold them close, do we let them go? What if someone tries to take them? It is a piece that speaks of solitude and relationships.

Power Dance and Co led by choreographer, dancer and yoga teacher, Fionuala Power presents 'Exit 2 Light', a work that explores through movement, text and images the transitional state after life and before death.

Grand Gesture, an established company of geri-anarchists creatively staging ageing through dance theatre are excited to present '69', a new work inspired by the defining year of rebellion.
