Show: 'King Lear' by William Shakespeare
Edited: Aoife Hinks-Spillane
Venue: O'Reilly Theatre
Run: Feb 2017
Role: Production Designer
Blurring the boundaries between rehearsal and performance, actor and character, our production begins life in a rehearsal room with actors wearing runners and drinking coffee out of takeaway cups. Walking in off the same Dublin streets as the audience, the actors’ conversations die away and as they begin to speak Shakespeare’s words, we see a transformation take place: the power of this play takes over the stage.
