Image Inspiration -What makes you feel old?

I was recently looking through some old family photos and had the thought if everyone or some of us found an image of themselves we could try and recreate it? I found these via the internet and I find it fascinating to see the changes of their skin, hair, facial structure ect. If anyone would like to I am more than interested to recreate some - to experiment and see if they would work within the show. You could use them as a backdrop to a scene on stage? 





This effect would look great for family generations - standing face to face







This image/words is almost a great introduction to roll on to a next scene in the performance

Saw this image which is like Charlotte's from her blog post. I like the idea of us all starting out on stage in a position where all of us are old and gazing into a reflection (projection) of our younger self, then at the end it would be turned the other way where we would finish by us being young looking at your older selves and thinking about the life ahead of us.


What makes you feel old? It can be something that is 'associated with the old' but isn't. What makes you feel young?

For me it's snow, I don't like the idea of it and the thought of walking in it makes me feel and walk on edge. I feel old at the thought of a night in watching Agatha Christie with tea, cake, ice cream, popcorn and sweets. The moment I realise that I'm getting older is when I'm putting on my makeup and trying to see and think if there are more lines appearing but I feel young at the thought of I'm only 21 - but is that old for my generation?

What does you're age say about you?
What does you're personality say about you?
Does you're age come with certain expectations? 
Do you compare yourself to others you're age?
What is age to you?
Do you have a certain age number that you call old?
