Young @ Heart in End of the Road
Tonight I watched Young @ Heart in End of the Road by No Theater at St. Ann's Warehouse.
Wow, what an inspiring and healthy show it was. With an extra large cast of energetic 80 year-olds singing all sorts of cover songs past and present I thoroughly enjoyed myself in this theatrically staged concert.
While experiencing all sorts of emotive feelings including but not limited to: happiness, sadness, laughter, concern, goose bumps, and on and on...I had thoughts of death from the obvious age (and the use of canes, walkers & wheelchairs) of each singer but also thoughts of everlasting life from their youthful energy at times, especially during solo singing moments up at the mic. There were a handful of key singers that tore it apart up on that stage and really put their everything into it. I absolutely want to have the same great health and vitality as these performers when I am in my 80s.
Maybe performing in a live show for hundreds of people at that age contributes to a longer and (awesome-er) life.
At St. Ann's Warehouse until May 1st.
