Until You Hear That Bell/Fatherland
Until You Hear That Bell - Told through spoken word and within timed boxing rounds, Until You Hear That Bell is a story about amateur boxing and family that spans ten years.
Fatherland - Evoking the lands of ancestors through the dance of drum and moustache. Born to a Scottish father whom she met only once, Nic follows the mystery of her paternal line. Accompanied by an ensemble of musicians, Fatherland draws on the energies and archetypes of a bloodline: The cathartic, intoxicating dances of the terra firma; the ancient warrior women painted and wild; the sadness of the songs, spoken in Gaelic tongue and the complex psycho-geography of this land. Based on the patterns of a traditional Highland Jig, Fatherlandunfurls to consolidate disparate and unknown aspects of Nic's identity. Fatherland was created by Nic Green, Tim Harbinson and Alasdair Campbell, with dramaturgical support from Deborah Richardson-Webb. Nic was nominated for Best Female Performer at Dublin Fringe Festival for her role in this work.
