this is now, and now, and now. by Amanda Szeglowski/cakeface comes to JACK on March 4 - 7, 2020.
Everyone wants to grow old, and no-one wants to grow old. In this incisively humorous ode to aging, a multigenerational ensemble of women confront impermanence and imperfection with striking musicality and movement. Known for infusing bleak themes with sparkling wit, cakeface's newest work merges the subject of aging with a wabi-sabi worldview: nothing lasts, nothing is finished, nothing is perfect. Powered by the same creative team from their recent acclaimed work, Stairway to Stardom (HERE), this is now, and now, and now. employs cakeface's signature dance-theatre blend as it reveals an underbelly of intergenerational empathy.
