Details

A contemporary dance triple bill from three of the most talented women working on the Irish stage today. With outstanding emotional force and dark humour, Oona Doherty, Emma Fitzgerald and Maria Nilsson Waller unfold a startlingly brilliant series of portraits of the young, the current, the lost, the disconnected and unhinged of contemporary Ireland. An attempt to raise the forgotten, disadvantaged stereotype into a bright white limbo, LAZARUS AND THE BIRDS OF PARADISE is Oona Doherty's distillation of Northern male youth. In Maria Nilsson Waller's striking looking, other-worldly and post-traumatic PRIME, encounter a woman rebuilding herself and her universe. And lastly, inspired by the seasons, Emma Fitzgerald references the living, dying impermanence of all that surrounds us and of which our existence is part, in REST.
