Fringe Festival favorites, the theater company known as Transatlantic Love Affair lands back at the Illusion Theater with its latest movement-based performance, in which the actors don't just inhabit the characters, but they also physically embody the settings as well. This romantic drama, co-created by artistic director Diogo Lopes and his ensemble, is set in an old folks' home, where a meaningful piece of music sparks memories of a lost love. This innovative company has had several hits in a row, including Pale Fisherman, Red Resurrected and Ash Land.

  These Old Shoes Reviews

Twin Cities Pioneer Press - Recommended

"...Although I could predict the ending, it still brought tears to my eyes. There's a sweetness to it -- and a "rightness" in this masterful exploration of the memories and emotions that refuse to die as long as we live."

Aisle Say Twin Cities - Recommended

"...An exploration of connection, memory, and reconnection, Transatlantic Love Affair's production These Old Shoes offers both an intriguing physical performance and a touchingly poignant emotional exploration. The ensemble cast transitions between the main setting of a retirement community and the lives and careers of its aging inhabitants through one character's transition from his home of several decades to a new home of peers. The stories he shares during this process help to reestablish his relationship with his granddaughter."
