Age Is a Feeling

Inspired by hospices, mystics and trips to the cemetery, Age is a Feeling wrestles with our endless chances to change course while we’re alive. A covert rallying cry against cynicism and regret. A call to seize our time. Written and performed by Olivier-nominated playwright and performer Haley McGee (The Ex-Boyfriend Yard Sale), this never-the-same-twice show is a gripping story about how our relationship with mortality shapes the way we live. Charting the seminal moments, rites of passage and turning points in adult life from the day of turning 25 through death, Age is a Feeling celebrates the glorious and melancholy unknowability of human life. Directed by Mitchell Cushman with original direction and dramaturgy by the late Adam Brace (Just for Us), Age is a Feeling premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe 2022, where it won the Fringe First Award, before transferring to the Soho Theatre in London for two sold-out runs.
