The 3rd Act

Part of Illusion Theater’s Virtual Spring Season…

The 3rd Act

Written by Patrick Scully

Directed by Michael Robins

THE 3rd ACT, investigates the question: “Can I embrace becoming old, particularly in this ageist society?” The play is designed to be followed by a discussion, targeted to folks 60 and older, to encourage community in order of figure out some solutions.

Patrick has this to say about the work, “Old is all I have left. From this point on, I will only ever be old. I want to embrace that, welcome and prepare for it. So, I’ve been looking, searching…How do I do that when our default response to being old is denial: Young is good. Old is bad. Deny aging!”
