How to measure a life? Years lived, miles travelled, memories recalled? Or through what is written in the bones? We have 270 at birth, fusing to 206 as adults, constantly changing size, shape and texture. The skeleton is an invisible archive of the passing years, storing information about our lives, readable even beyond the grave. In the year 4016 - when humans live forever - an archaeologist unearths some bones from people who lived in 2016. What do these bone-characters reveal about their lives, and what questions do they ask? Why is it that when we're 15, we long to be 21, but at 60, we pretend to be 40? What do you do, when the mirror says 80, but your inner self feels 10? When is the awareness of time passing replaced by the realisation we're ageing? Why are the old invisible? To The Bone is a quest to find answers, exploring experience, memory, science, perceptions and taboos, using movement, text, music, film and a skeleton.T01544275713Producer Katrina Duncan.
