CISEACH
CISEACH
An Embodied Manifesto
Runtime: 60 mins | No interval
Ages: 10+
Contains loud noises
Presented by Catherine Young Dance
in association with Backstage Theatre
This stirring new work by Catherine Young Dance (Floating on a Dead Sea and State of Exception) urges us to re-member, to re-connect with our past, with nature and with each other. Collecting fragments of native wisdoms, myths and kinships, CISEACH builds the wattled causeway, the ciseach, to guide us to solid ground.
This pulsating show weaves together a tapestry of dance, rhythm, live music and voice, and seeks to rekindle our broken relationship with the land.
After an incredible response with instant standing ovations from audiences in Longford and Dublin last year, we are thrilled to have CISEACH return.
