Calling all community groups/ sports clubs/ social groups/ mens sheds/ community centres across South Dublin!
With thanks to Red Bear Productions, we are delighted to offer local groups the chance to welcome this immersive piece of theatre FREE to your outdoor venue in September. Red Bear’s new production is a live theatre installation bringing the energy of the Irish Sea to audiences in the most unlikely of places. This September ‘Neptune Calling’ will be in outdoor locations across South Dublin County.
A funny, thought-provoking story of an unlikely friendship between two very different women. Sara – young, naive and optimistic and Helen – older, cynical who believes the powers that be know more than they should. A mixture of sensory experiences, with a beautiful script by Eoghan Quinn, (Stewart Parker Award nominee).
Voiced by Aoibhéann McCann & Geraldine Plunkett and performed by Robyn Byrne.
Written by Eoghan Quinn
Directed by Tracy Martin
Duration 50 minutes (no interval)
About the Production
The audience will arrive on site to be seated deck chairs and given headphones through which they will hear waves crash, seagulls holler and swimmers greet one another. As the performance starts the sound focuses in on Sara; her thoughts and the conversations she has with herself, Helen and most importantly – the sea. A mixture of sensory experiences, a beautiful script by Eoghan Quinn, voiced by Aoibheann McCann and Geraldine Plunkett and a choreographed movement piece performed by dancer Robyn Byrne.
If your group would like to host this play for FREE, please contact niamh.honer@civictheatre.ie
