The Burnt City

GODS AND MORTALS RISE FOR A PARTY AT THE END OF THE WORLD

Between the neon-drenched backstreets of Downtown Troy and the menacing shadow of Greece, a sprawling labyrinth hides secrets not even prophecies could foretell. Choose your own fate in a colossal playground of 100+ rooms across two mythic cities. As night falls, Gods, mortals, dreamers and lovers come alive  – one last time.

Mount Average

Mount Average is about the struggle of how we deal with the past and how history carved in stone becomes a problem today.

Mount Average is a factory that works with monuments of leaders, politicians and intellectuals. From Leopold II, to Hitler or Colbert. The monuments are the “raw material” for a process of transformation. Mount Average is a highly efficient factory that produces nothing. It is about an ongoing process of creating and deconstructing. About doing and not doing. About finding and letting go. The factory sets a process in motion that revolves around becoming.

The Under Presents

Where immersive theater meets VR. An intriguing multiplayer experience set between two worlds: a jaunty vaudeville stage and the harrowing survival narrative.

Follow characters’ interlocking fates as all journeys forward must turn back or become lost.

Come Live With Me Angel

This was an installation style piece performed in Michaelmas 2 2022 in DUPlayers. It was performed in the dressing room in the Players building, the small space being used to represent a small apartment in Dublin. Audience members were immersed completely in the scene as they played characters/people attending an art class in the 'apartment'. The actors directly interacted with the audience members.

Staging the Treaty

ANU Productions brought to life one of the most significant events in Irish history – the Treaty Debates.

Poet and writer Theo Dorgan spent over 3 years working with the original documents, fearlessly and scrupulously replaying the debates in the words of those who participated exploring both the historical and contemporary relevance of the debate.

Directed by Louise Lowe.

Monoliths

Three women. Three voices. The northern landscape.

Three stories open the world of the English northern landscape in virtual reality, what it means to come from it, live in it and belong to it.

Monoliths interweaves radiant renderings of three northern UK environments – a moor, a city and a coast – with sweeping soundscapes and poetic monologues by Hannah Davies, Carmen Marcus and Asma Elbadawi. At once imaginative and immersive, this XR experience is an arresting testament to the inextricable link between person and place.
