PRESENTED BY THE SUBSTATION, BORN IN A TAXI & MELBOURNE FRINGE
A celebration of life in all its stages, Prime Time interrogates the relationship between age, power, visibility, and value. This new intergenerational work challenges our assumptions and expectations about age and ageing. Featuring a cast of 14, aged between 5 and 93, Prime Time forges new dialogues across generations through shared stories, perspectives, dance and sound.
