About the programme:
Fishamble: The New Play Company presents an excerpt from The Wheelchair
on My Face by Sonya Kelly, fresh from its Fringe First Award at
Edinburgh 2012: ‘I got my first pair of glasses when I was seven. A
nurse came to the school and tested everyone’s eyes. And so it
was discovered why I’d thrown bread to the floating crisp packets in
our local pond and walked into lamp posts and said, ’excuse me’...
Crash Ensemble will celebrate Philip Glass’s 75^th birthday with a
performance of 'Music in Similar Motion', specially arranged and
produced by Kate Ellis and Enda Bates with video by Simon Doyle:
"The earlier pieces were meditative, steady-state pieces that
established a mood and stayed there...The real innovation in "Similar
Motion" is its sense of drama. Philip Glass
And acclaimed national treasure, CoisCéim, will present a short
work-in-progress dance performance from Pageant by Muirne Bloomer and
David Bolger.
Praise for recent productions Faun and As You Are (2010): The dance
that lands on its feet....Exquisite... Superb... The Sunday Independent
