Hundreds of women over the age of sixty will converge on The Tanks at Tate Modern to participate in Silver Action, a live and unscripted performance conceived by artist Suzanne Lacy.

UK-based women who took part in significant activist movements and protests from the 1950s to 80s will share their personal stories in a series of workshops, culminating in a day-long public performance.

The work aims to highlight women's role in shaping society, with a focus on older women who have enabled this historically.
