The Rest of Our Lives
Created and performed by Jo Fong and George Orange
“One of the most joyful, celebratory and hilarious experiences of my life”
Hannah Robertshaw
Hopefully hopeful, The Rest of Our Lives is a cabaret of life and near death. Join Jo and George for a night of dance, circus and games. The struggle is real. Jo is an old dancer, George an old clown. They are international artists with 100 years of life experience between them. They’ve reached the mid-way point, and now they’re looking at the rest of their lives and wondering, what next? Armed with a soundtrack of floor-fillers, a book of raffle tickets and a sprinkling of eco-friendly glitter. Join them as they negotiate middle life together with humour, tenderness and outlandish optimism.
