Frozen: Frozen is a site-specific dance film set in the streets of Dublin and in the Garden of Remembrance. Frozen juxtaposes Ireland’s iconic and historical past with today’s rapidly evolving culture posturing a dilemma in the contemporary Irish psyche struggling to reconcile Ireland old and new.
Two Worlds Lie At Their Feet: Mairead Vaughan and Regan O’Brien simultaneously perform self-devised solos woven together in a symbiotic exchange of dance, theatre and voice, accompanied by Dara O’Brien’s live soundscape. Regan, Mairead and Dara have allowed their travels to remote regions in India, Nepal, Peru, Ecuador, Borneo, Malaysia, Morroco and Senegal to directly inform this new work.
