FOREVER YOUNG, A Theatre Piece by Elisheva Scheuer
What is the meaning of life? How do we find fulfillment and purpose? Will we be remembered, and if so, how?
Actress and playwright Elisheva Scheuer explores these questions through her original verbatim theatre piece, Forever Young. Based on interviews with seven remarkable humans, the play offers a glimpse into each interviewee’s life, exploring their dreams, experiences, and reflections on love and loss. Ultimately, Forever Young is a collage of humanity – a testament to our never-ending search for clarity about what it means to live, to love, to grow, and to contemplate what comes next.
Runtime: 55 minutes, followed by a brief talkback.
Two Performance Dates:
Tuesday, September 22 • 7:30-8:30 PM
Tuesday, September 29 • 7:30-8:30 PM
