from Murmuration
Generously supported by Culture Ireland
Murmuration and Solas Nua present Summertime, a live performance enhanced through headphones in an intimate, storytelling experience. Solas Nua's previous presentation of Murmuration's audio-installation, One Moment Now, was hosted by Tony-Award Winning Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company last fall.
Summertime explores the troubled relationship between Stash, an artist working in a pub, and her boyfriend, Steve. When one thoughtless comment knocks the pair out of sync, the fallout causes a rift that continues to deepen. Praised by Dublin's The Arts Review as "heartfelt, genius, and beautifully executed," hear both sides of this story.

from Brú Theatre
Generously supported by Culture Ireland
Ar Ais Arís is a groundbreaking work from Brú Theatre that combines Irish language, literature, and visual poetry. Having captivated both sides of the Atlantic and making its US premiere with Solas Nua, Ar Ais Arís is hailed by the Irish Times as "absorbing, evocative and sometimes unsettling." In this work, Brú’s team of performers, creators, designers, and composers have come together to create three unique 180° films, immersing audiences in a fusion of movement, text, music, and Connemara landscape through the use of VR headsets.
