Force Majeure's The Age I'm In is a poignant, witty and revealing portrait of how we inhabit the age we're in throughout our lives.

Woven together and brought to life by Force Majeure's distinctive dance-theatre language, a diverse selection of Australians aged between 14 and 80 offer astonishingly personal responses to a range of emotive issues, creating an intimate and warmhearted snapshot of the aging process.

Under acclaimed director Kate Champion, this remarkable performance - which won the award for Outstanding Performance by a Company at the 2009 Australian Dance Awards - skillfully combines audio-visual technology, real-life interviews and a distinctive physical language to take a fresh and humorous look at generational cliches, family interactions and the complexity of human relationships.

"...a beautifully constructed work that celebrates the diversity of our society and the complexity of human relationships through an original and entertaining fusion of storytelling, projection, dance and music." Alex Lalak, The Daily Telegraph
