Time Don't Stop for Nobody

Ellen Fisher Dance

Time Don't Stop for Nobody is a movement-based performance related to the perception of age. A small ensemble of four performers, each 25-30 years apart, collaborate to highlight their shared experiences on the progression of growing up. 

A hundred people aged 5 - 96 years old answered a requested questionnaire. Fisher and her fellow performers thoroughly investigated the provocative and inspiring answers to help guide the structure of this intimate performance with music, dance and text. Questions included: Do you like the age you are? What makes you feel grown-up? How do you change with age?

Performers: Pablo Vela, Mina Nishimura, Leo Garcia and Ellen Fisher
