《老而不 Stay in Touch 》一群「幼而不」和「老而不」被關一起,日以繼夜、夜以繼日。突然,幼而不打開一個音樂盒,播放一首情歌,老而不站起來,打開禁室大門⋯⋯幾位年輕人走訪素未謀面的中老年人,傾聽他們的寂寞故事,並各自以不同方式作出回應,最後發現彼此的情感是如此相通。來到舞台上,他們期盼再度「觸碰」,在迷失和孤單中學習保持親密。
此作品於2020年7月11日在大館賽馬立方上演及大館網站現場直播。
《Hey my old friend, stay in touch.》We usually describe the elder people as ‘stubborn’, but what about young people, aren’t they not stubborn at all?Local creative lab Weak Chickens and a group of young artists have conducted interviews with middle-aged seniors and collected stories from them. To their surprise, they found that the mentalities of these seniors are somehow similar to their own. Bringing these shared compassions on stage, they wish to connect the old and the young through the power of the arts.
This was a live performance in Tai Kwun & live stream on Tai Kwun website in 2020.
