SUMMARY:Epiphany
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 23rd to Saturday 26th September @ 8.00pm\nplus Matinee Saturday 26th @ 2.30pm\nPresented by tenderfire\nEpiphany\nWritten and performed by Lesley Conroy\nDirected by Fiana Toibin\nFollowing the sold-out World Premiere at the 2026 Bloomsday Festival\, in this bold reimagining of James Joyce’s ‘The Dead’\, Gretta Conroy takes centre stage at the Misses Morkan’s annual supper party. A night filled with music\, dancing and genteel skirmishes. \nGretta has it all: a house by the sea\, a gentleman’s family\, and a romantic night in The Gresham planned with her dutiful husband Gabriel. But when a love song from her past unearths long-buried memories\, Gretta is landed at a crossroads weighing up the choices that shaped her\, and the path that lies ahead. \nIf you are a fan of Joyce and ‘The Dead ’\, come and see the story as told from Gretta’s point of view. Gretta gives voice to the preoccupations of mid-life\, motherhood and marriage – the secrets you share with your friends in the early hours of the morning.\nThis unique production expands the female voice in the Joyce canon beyond Molly Bloom\, and Nora & Lucia Joyce. \nThemes of love\, loss and longing are excavated under the ghost weight of the past. \nMail on Sunday ****\n‘Thrilling Interpretation of Joyce’s Story’.\n‘Evocative classic The Dead gets a retelling from a female perspective – and it’s brilliant. Lesley Conroy owns the stage.’\n\nThe Reviews Hub ****\nEpiphany written and performed by Lesley Conroy and directed by Fiana Toibin encapsulates the perfect character study of Gretta Conroy in James Joyce’s short story “The Dead”.\n\nTHE ARTS REVIEW ****\n‘Conroy conjures an entire world from thin air\, seamlessly folding past and present into one another. Delivering with ease the theatrical somersault of a one-woman\, multi-character show.’\n\nDirector: Fiana Toibin\nWritten and Performed by: Lesley Conroy \nAssistant Director: Sinead O’Connor Ringwood\nLighting design: Cathy O’Carroll\nSet & Costume: Dara Gill\nSound: Brian Dillon\nMusic: Anne-Marie Papin Labazordière\nChoreography: Muirne Bloomer\nProduction images: Al Craig \ntenderfire is a new initiative founded by Lesley Conroy that amplifies the female voice in emotionally charged narratives for stage & screen. \nEpiphany was funded by The Arts Council\, dlr Arts Grant\, dlr Mountain to Sea Bursary\, Cork Theatre Collective Space to Play award & Laois Arts Office Tyrone Guthrie Centre Bursary. \nRunning time: 60 minutes\nAge recommendation: 14+ \nTicket Prices: €18\n*Booking fees apply

In their conflicting turmoil\, they take devastating action that leads to irreversible damage. How do you keep the beauty of a moment forever? \nThe premiere of Beautiful Little Robin has been curated by emerging artists based in Cork City. The piece is saturated with several artistic perspectives that enable the story to exist across a range of visual and conceptual forms.

SUMMARY:GOLL
DESCRIPTION:Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th October @ 8.00pm\nplus Matinees Saturday and Sunday @ 4.00pm\nGOLL\nDevised by Ensemble \nScripted by Brendan Duffin\nSeo taibhléiriú neamhchríochnaithe de chomhar ealaíonta drámatúil dátheangach\, ‘Goll’\, idir Strive Theatre agus an banna ceoil ó Chorcaigh\, Mac Bóchra. Is saothar turgnamhach drámaíochta é ‘Goll’\, ag sní ceoil\, filíochta\, scannánaíochta\, rince agus scéalaíochta le chéile chun scéalta agus seanchas faoin mBradán Feasa agus ‘Goll Essa Ruadh’ a léiriú. Is ionann Goll Essa Ruadh agus an seanchaí is sine\, an t-ilchruthach\, Fintan Mac Bóchra. \nStrive Theatre and Cork band MacBóchra present the premiere of their bilingual theatrical collaboration\, GOLL. An experimental theatre work fusing music\, poetry\, film\, dance\, storytelling and spectacle\, GOLL\, explores the stories and seanchas associated with the salmon of knowledge and Goll Essa Ruadh\, the oldest seanchaí and shapeshifter known also as Fintan macBóchra. \nThroughout medieval literature Fintan appears as Ireland’s oldest breitheamh and file…a repository of Ireland’s most ancient traditions and stories. Medieval literature depicts him as the sole survivor of the Biblical flood\, living on in different forms as sole witness to the various migrations (Partholónian\, Nemedian\, Fir Bolg\, Tuatha Dé Danann\, Gael) to Ireland throughout the millennia. Join us as we adapt six medieval narratives associated with Fintan Mac Bóchra into six episodes of contemporary theatre. \n“This experimental theatre experience combines music\, dance\, poetry and film to delight and surprise at every turn.” – Mikayli Dennehy\, The Passage Between. \n“MacBóchra and Strive embodied the many aspects of the mythical character Fintan. The more I think back on the play\, the more vivid and brilliant it becomes – a fantastic performance of dreams and imagination.” – Phillip Spillane\, Poet (Audience Member) \nCAST & CREATIVE TEAM: \nDevised by Ensemble\nScripted by Brendan Duffin\nDirected by Ciarán MacArtain\nMusic by MacBóchra\nSound & AV Design: Benjamin Burns\nLighting Design: Ciarán MacArtain\nCostume\, Poster\, Illustrations & Print Design: Joanne Hackett\nMask Design & Fabrication: Debbie Reilly\nPerformers: Caoimhe Feehily\, Aisling McDonough\, Angelique Everitt\, Brendan Duffin\nMusicians: Brian Leach\, Brian Sheehan\, Brendan Duffin\, Angelique Everitt\nChoreography for Sinann’s dance: Siobhán Ní Dhuinnín\nSean Nós Dancer – Finín Ó Conaill \nRunning time: 70 minutes (no interval)\nAge recommendation: Suitable for all ages \nTicket Prices: €20\n*Booking fees apply
