Mourning is a Muscle
Interdisciplinary - Theatre · Barry Fitzgerald
A denim-drenched journey through grief, queerness and lineage - part performance, part installation.
Four years after their father's death, Barry began writing him letters. What started as a private mourning ritual became a way to move again.
Fusing ritual, music, design and movement, this tender new work travels from Annie Lennox to Neil Diamond, Carlow fields to London lockdown, line dancing to lip-syncing.
A call to witness mourning in all its forms: spectacular, ordinary and everything in between.
