| Notes: | BUFFOON'S BIRTHDAY has been a something of a passion project for McGrath. "I was inspired by the classical bu?oons of the medieval era, a dark court jester with a mischievous streak." The first draft was completed in late 2005, then gestated until the formation of Liminal Theatre a?orded the opportunity to produce it. | |||||
| Synopsis: | telling the story of the bu?oons Bones, Meat, Guts, Skin, Blood and a Herald as they celebrate a birthday in their own skewed and twisted way. Says writer-director Damien McGrath, "We are using mask, ensemble and vocal work to create these bizarre characters and the world they inhabit." | |||||
