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.
“Inside there are two rooms. You are in one. Holding your dirty laundry. They are in the other. Waiting for you.”
In a reimagined version co-commissioned by 14-18 NOW: WW1 Centenary Art Commissions, THESE ROOMS shared its focus between the civilians of North King Street and the men of the South Staffordshire Regiment who committed the massacre – their identities largely anonymous, their actions controversially exonerated at a military enquiry. Created by two of Ireland’s most original companies, this fearless and embodied physical performance shed new light on a long-forgotten but pivotal moment in British-Irish relations.
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.
Two of Ireland’s leading theatre companies – ANU Productions and Landmark – collaborated for the first time, to present a hugely ambitious co-production that plots a singular path through one of the most secretive, contentious and turbulent times in Irish history.

In these extended reality (XR) applications users are invited to enter the world of James Joyce’s Ulysses through the cutting-edge technology of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). The VR application will allow audiences from any part of the globe to experience the sites and associated scenes from the story via a VR headset. On the other hand, the AR application will allow audiences to physically go to those locations and witness dramatic recreations of the scenes by using a mobile phone, tablet or head-mounted display.
