About this Event

Darling, our last hurrah. Join us for a night of dynamic Gothic art reflective of our final festival theme 'Death, my Bride', a Japanese influenced dance performance of 'Salome' by Eriko Uehara, poetry by Dave Lordan and live opera by Soprano Sandra Oman with pianist David Wray.

Agenda:

Throughout the night: A selection of diverse dark, alternative and Gothic art works from artists of the scene and works relating to death from Irish and international artists in a highly focused showcase.

6.15 - 6.50 pm: Dancer and Singer Eriko Uehara will perform a special commission and interpret the final scene from Strauss’ opera Salome inspired by Oscar Wilde’s original work. Uehara will design a fusion of Irish and Japanese culture into this performance which is of great meaning to us here at Soul Noir.

7-720pm: Celebrated punk poet and writer Dave Lordan will read from his memoir, The Dead Friends. Lordan will also read his celebrated poem Cureheads.

7.30-8.30pm: Soprano Sandra Oman will perform Dying for Love with pianist David Wray in a special concert for Soul Noir’s audiences.

8:50pm: Featuring Best in Show, Best Emerging Artist and the Dark Heart Award. Have your say and vote for Audience Favourite (announced on November 2nd). Featuring guest speaker Giovanni Giusti.

High end Gothic attire is highly encouraged, there is an award for 'Best Dressed'. All proceeds of ticket sales will be split between a women's refuge (name protected) and the Blue Cross.
