2024 TOUR
Hopefully hopeful – The Rest of Our Lives is a joyful dose of dance, theatre, circus and games. A cabaret of life and near death. Two middle-aged lives in an eclectic, spontaneous, predictable and random decline.
Jo is an old dancer, George an old clown. International artists with 100 years of life experience between them, armed with a soundtrack of floor-fillers, a book of raffle tickets and a sprinkling of eco-friendly optimism. Joyful, celebratory and hilarious. The struggle is real. It’s the beginning of the end. But we’re still here.‘Whatever your age, it will make you very happy indeed’ Lyn Gardner, Stagedoor ‘Fong and Orange have found a blueprint for happily living the rest of our lives’ ★★★★ The Guardian ‘Life is too short not to live like this’ ★★★★ The ScotsmanMay Brighton Festival, Caravan Assembly. BOOK June Battersea Arts Centre, London. BSL performances available. BOOK
