I obtained two FREE tickets to a play at the Rose Wagner Theater at 138 W Broadway – Downtown SLC in Oct. The presentation was “Coming Ice Age”; written by Elaine Jarvik on her view of aging not so much, “No, I am not going to say it”, yes, I am – women’s issues. The theater opened in Ogden, UT in 1996.
This was a dress rehearsal without sets, first time seen by the public. The director said, “It is for the purpose of bringing the actors and the audience together.” The theater was dark on the stage. A couple folding chairs with a box beside them. A small wood table with a red purse on it. 7:30 – the lights dim…
A couple in their 70s is standing in their “living room” bowling on Wii. They have come from a friend’s funeral and are discussing cremation vs. burial. The husband says he wouldn’t put out that much money to have pictures on the sides of his coffin… The wife wanted to be “frozen”, so she could come back as a 19-year old.
The other issue they had was the wife wanted to sell their home where they had been most of their lives. A real estate agent came to their house to show them brochures of a planned retirement community. The husband rebels and stonewalls the process every way he can… He didn’t want to give up his Chutes and Ladders game, portable typewriter…
With a minimal number of actors and actresses, plus not any sets or scenery, it is engaging. It tells the story of a man who’s in transition downsizing from a family home to a senior citizen setting. “The American ideal of “olders” rather than “elders"; some handle it gracefully while others lament their youth.” *
