Dragonfly Theatre says: "Check out the new Galway Theatre Festival. More information is available at www.townhalltheatregalway.com " (2 hours ago) me too! | | Who are Dragonfly? | | Dragonfly Theatre was founded by Shona McCarthy, Siobhán Donnellan and Fiachra Ó Dubhghaill, having met while undertaking the MA in Drama and Theatre Studies in NUIG in 2006. MARRIED TO THE SEA, was written and directed by Shona and premiered in the Town Hall Theatre Studio, Galway in May 2007. Married to the Sea has since toured Ireland extensively including the Clonmel and Galway Arts Festival and was staged in the Assembly Rooms, in Edinburgh for the Fringe Festival in August 2008. Shona's new play Reptilian will premier at the 2008 Dublin Fringe Festival in September. Please see across the page for further performances | | | Awards for Dragonfly | | Shona McCarthy, writer and director of the award-winning play, Married to the Sea, won the Fishamble New Writing Award at the Dublin Fringe Festival 2007.
Dragonfly Theatre's Siobhán Donnellan won the Outstanding actor award for her role as eight year old Jo in Married to the Sea, at the New York International Fringe Festival 2007 | | | WORD ON THE STREET FOR REPTILIAN | | 4 STARS - THE IRISH TIMES (who called it)...a surreal exploration of familial dysfunction which constantly surprises...is full of suspense and revelations...is stylised and poetic..this story is vividly original...excellent performances...RECOMMENDED
THE SUNDAY INDEPENDENT (described it as)...another kind of intensity...as black as night...McCarthy's writing has wild imagining and clever execution... | | | WORD ON THE STREET FOR MARRIED TO THE SEA | | 5 STARS from THE IRISH TIMES describing it as
"a beautiful, lyrical and haunting fable of loss....utterly compelling and often very funny".
"a gem of a play" - THE SUNDAY TRIBUNE
Siobhan Donnellan is a fascinating actress to watch.” – SHOSHANA GREENBURG, OFF BROADWAY ONLINE
“Dragonfly’s new play is one of the most genuinely lyrical and evocative new plays to be unveiled by an Irish theater company in years…Married to the Sea announces them as the most interesting theater company to have emerged in Ireland in decades.” – CAHIR O DOHERTY, THE IRISH VOICE
“In the theatre, the only thing more reliably dysfunctional than the American family is the Irish family, and Shona McCarthy offers a prime example of the latter in this low-key, lyrical drama.” – A.J. MELL, BACKSTAGE.COM | | | REPTILIAN - SYNOPSIS | | Dorothy believes her 63rd birthday will mirror every other day: cleaning the house and reciting poetry to her beloved turtles while her husband Richard works late with his young secretary, her son avoids the ruthless 'Ten-Toke Tony'. But past and present events collide with catastrophic consequences for everyone, even the turtles. | | | MARRIED TO THE SEA - SYNOPSIS | | Married to the Sea tells the story of Jo and Galway’s Old Claddagh sea-faring community. Jo is an eight year old girl with a special gift. On the mysterious disappearance of her father, she must contend with an unwelcome intruder in her household and her family’s secret past begins to unravel. | | | THE CLADDAGH - SETTING FOR MARRIED TO THE SEA | | The Claddagh was once a fishing village located west of Galway city centre, just outside the old city walls where the Corrib River meets Galway Bay. It is in clear view of The Spanish Arch, which was the location of regular fish markets where the locals supplied the city with seafood.
During the 19th century the Claddagh attracted many visitors, including writers who spread its fame. Irish-speaking into the 20th century, the village was replaced by a council-housing scheme in the 1930s. | |
