THE CRONING (solo.duet 48:25)

Both performances of THE CRONING (solo) take place at Laurel Hill West Conservatory

225 Belmont Ave Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004

THE CRONING is a solo movement and theater piece from creator and performer Shavon Norris. The piece considers the particularities, pleasures, and frustrations surrounding the experience of aging while Black. It considers Shavon’s bodily change of chemistry while moving through medical and cultural systems that do not prioritize the wellness and wholeness of Black women bodies. THE CRONING invites performer and witnesses to consider what we have learned about aging, dying, and death. And it invites us to tap into existing and new references and rituals so we can expand our imaginations of what it can feel like/sound like/look like/be like, to age as a Black woman body.
