Older & Reckless 25 at The Fleck at Harbourfront Centre Theatre

Older & Reckless, Moonhorse Dance Theatre’s acclaimed series returns to the Fleck Harbourfront Centre stage this fall as it celebrates its 25th anniversary on November 21 and 22, 2025 featuring four dance works created and performed by luminary dance artists. The works, curated by Artistic Director Allison Cummings, seek to redefine destructive assumptions about age and dance ability; and celebrate artists over 45 who continuously take risks, ask pertinent questions and dig deep into nuance.

This year's bill includes “Handmade” a premiere duet by acclaimed Montreal based artists Marc Boivin and Louise Bédard that explores the invitation to be Older & Reckless; “de corazón” a love letter to the heart—its resilience, its mischief, its ache, and its boundless capacity for joy, choreographed by William Yong and performed by ballet legend Sonia Rodriguez; and “Elsinore/night hours” a highly anticipated remount of a work by Carol Anderson and performed by Julia Sasso, originally presented by this dynamic duo in 1999.

To mark Moonhorse Dance Theatre’s 25th anniversary of Older & Reckless they will screen a special video celebrating the work and artists that have taken the stage over the years.

The program also features a new dance created by Jenn Goodwin for this year’s Older & Reckless Community Performance Project, featuring over 20 mature dance enthusiasts.
