Quick Info
In TEMPTATION, ten performers aged 55 and over move between lust and loss, flirtation and shame, pleasure and pain, using biographical excerpts and physical snapshots to make a statement about sexuality in old age. TEMPTATION embarks on a sensual journey to stimulating, bygone and obscure places and is dedicated to the visibility of individual desire in old age.
TEMPTATION is a production by Kompanie Silke Z. and was created in 2024 in cooperation with Schauspiel Köln. The performers are from the OLDSCHOOL theatre ensemble at Schauspiel Köln under the artistic direction of David Vogel and from the Kompanie Silke Z.
