GeriActors & Friends present... TWO new plays!

Be Careful | Now That We’re Older

GeriActors & Friends (geriactors.ca) is an intergenerational theatre company based in Edmonton that brings together university students and seniors (ages range from early 20s to 90s!) to develop original plays based on true stories and issues of aging. We are returning to the stage this June for the first time since 2019!

Be Careful is about a couple who have just experienced a major setback in their retirement and are unsure of next steps. Follow them, their loveable dog Toby, and a dynamic cast of characters as they explore the falls and fears that come with aging, and figure out how to support each other through it all.

Now that We’re Older is about the things we leave behind and (sometimes) forget, and how aging has freed us to become our truest selves.

Audiences will have the opportunity to watch and weigh in on both plays. After each performance, audiences are invited to stay for light refreshments and a talkback with the cast - connect with us, discuss the plays, and share even more stories.

Performances will be held at The Foote Auditorium at St. Paul’s United Church, 11526 76 Avenue, Edmonton on:

• Thursday, June 1 from 1:00-2:30pm
• Friday, June 2 from 7:00-8:30pm
• Saturday, June 3 from 1:00-2:30pm

Tickets are pay-what-you-can. Use the registration link to get your tickets and reserve your seats for the date of your choosing. A limited number of tickets for each performance will be available at the door.
