Together

Together: A Theatrical Conversation emerges from the Theatre Workshop in English directed by Núria Casado Gual at the University of Lleida, a course that for over a decade has combined theatre-making, pedagogy and critical reflection. Conceived as the creative core of the workshop?s 2024-25 edition, the play is structured in two complementary parts, the play moves from a satirical examination of Generation Z to a series of intimate ?slices of life? inspired by conversations with older people, creating a dynamic theatrical dialogue that resists stereotypes and challenges ageist narratives. The script published in this volume is a textual echo of a chorally devised performance shaped through interviews, personal objects, memories and collective dramaturgical work. Balancing humour and emotion with critical insight, Together foregrounds the value of intergenerational exchange and reimagines ageing as a stage of creativity, resilience and shared meaning. In its original production, the play demonstrated its ability to connect deeply with diverse audiences; in print, it invites new readers, scholars and theatre practitioners to re-stage, adapt and continue the conversation across generations.
