Synopsis: | The devastating and brutal story of an ageing couple's violent descent into self-destructive despair. Against the powerful backdrop of political and social disillusionment and the individual's struggle to feel significant in an indifferent world. The spiralling events of one climatic day force Bert and Sibylle to face their guilty memories, parasitic relationship and the dreadful truth of growing old. | |||||

Synopsis: | Corcadorca, the celebrated Cork company known for its site-specific innovative work, presents this haunting and intimate show which gives a devastating glimpse into the life of one woman, who in the course of an hour makes a decision that changes everything. Set in a city centre apartment, this wordless and often chilling production invites the audience into the private world of its lone character - played by IFTA winning actress Eileen Walsh - as she moves through the small rituals and daily routines on which her life is built. Accompanied only by the sound of a radio request programme, this is not a day like all the others. She has a different conclusion in mind. | |||||

Synopsis: | Franz Xaver Kroetz's superb 1978 play Tom Fool takes us back to the moment when women finally began to change the rules of the game. Liam Brennan's Otto Meier is a superb portrait of what still passed, in 1970s Germany, for an ordinary working man. Obsessed with the minute hierarchies of his factory workplace, used to taking his wife Martha completely for granted and inclined to see his stroppy 16-year-old son as a rival rather than a child in his care, Otto finds his world shattered when a terminal row with his son drives Martha to pack her bag and leave, leaving him alone to deal with the insecurities and alienations of his working life. In 20-odd powerful scenes, each with a title like a sitcom episode, Kroetz charts this story of breakdown with a wonderful, rich yet cold-eyed hyperrealism that is his hallmark, and without a hint of polemic, either way. | |||||
