Once Upon A Time is a thoughtful and passionate show about ageing and the passing of time, told through the extraordinary bodies of two dancers and one trapeze artist, all aged over 65. At once a celebration of, and a provocation on our relationship with ageing, this dance-theatre performance reveals how time marks its inevitable course through our skin, our muscles, our identity. Drawing from Jean Amery's book "On Aging: Revolt and Resignation", Agnieszka Blonska has created a poetic piece which offers powerful insight into the effects of aging and time passing, and focuses on the stories that emerge as the life of a physical performer evolves.
