Keeping Our Torch

Presented by Cincinnati Fringe Festival and Know Theatre of Cincinnati at Gabriel's Corner, Cincinnati OH

Jun 07 - 16 2023
Keeping Our Torch

A dance-infused performance celebrating diverse stories of intergenerational wisdom.

From Pones out of Cincinnati, OH and Northern Kentucky.

Keeping our Torch is a dance-infused performance highlighting aging community members’ diverse stories of wisdom and joy throughout life. This collaborative project is inspired by real-life stories from community elders on the formative milestones of their lives, the wisdom that they’ve gained and would like to pass along, and their hopes for intergenerational joy. Stories were collected by Pones artists and passed along to elder/aging artists to interpret into vignettes on creative aging.
What does it look like to keep the creative torch lit throughout life?
What wisdom can generations share?
How do we age, courageously, together?
