CENTRE

As we rocket to midway through 2013 we
have begun to take stock of the year so far at
Project – more audiences than ever are visiting
the centre, taking part in our performance and
visual art programmes. In April, Project Arts
Centre, with the support of our partners at the
Arts Council, Culture Ireland, Fáilte Ireland and
Dublin City Council, welcomed almost 600 of
our performing arts colleagues from across
the globe as part of the IETM Spring Plenary
Meeting. This was an incredible opportunity to
showcase our amazing artists, the working cul-
tural quarter that is Temple Bar and, of course,
our fantastic city. I was also proud to host our
first Community Day, throwing open the doors
of the building to our audiences and the local
community to experience the centre in new
ways. We will be doing more of these events in
the future, so keep an eye on our new website
which will be launched later in the summer.
We have a wonderful programme
for you this summer at Project Arts Centre –
beginning with Landmark Productions Howie
the Rookie written and directed by Mark
O’Rowe and featuring a stellar performance
from Tom Vaughan-Lawlor; I am thrilled to
follow this with our co-production with the
Everyman Cork of Carmel Winters’ explosive
new play, Best Man. Fresh from its premiere
at Cork Midsummer Festival, this is a wonder-
ful opportunity to see the work of a writer who
is taking the theatre and film world by storm.
Not to be missed is Ether Productions’
new show Landfall. They really blew me
away with their production during the Dublin
Fringe Festival last year so I am thrilled to be
presenting their new show.
We welcome back AC Productions with
another hilarious take on Shakespeare with
their new production of Twelfth Night. I am also

delighted to welcome a new company to Project
Arts Centre; Polish Theatre Ireland with their pro-
duction of Foreign Bodies by Julia Holewinska.
In our gallery we present a major solo
exhibition of work by Mexican artist Mario
García Torres. This large-scale survey show
will evolve into 4 exhibitions, giving you an op-
portunity to experience his beautiful artworks
and see the breath of his work and vision. In
September, we will following this with a solo
show by Dutch artist Jennifer Tee, featuring a
host of new works gleaned from her travels
and exhibitions across the world which have
been created especially for this show.
A small number of our beautiful editions
from Niamh O’Malley’s recent exhibition Gar-
den are still available for purchase; this is the
first time Project has produced this type of work
in a number of years and it is a great way for
you to support the artists with whom we work
and to own the work of one of Ireland’s major
up-and-coming artists.
In September we will be hosting the Dub-
lin Fringe Festival and then the Dublin Theatre
Festival – our busiest, most exciting time of the
year. The festivals have incredible work lined
up for you at Project Arts Centre and we will
be sharing their programmes with you later in
the summer. I hope you will join us for some
of these fantastic events and I look forward to
welcoming you to Project in the coming months.

Last week I attended the ‘All
Ireland Performing Arts Conference’
curated by Maureen Kennelly, run
by Theatre Forum Ireland and NITA,
Northern Ireland.
The theme of this year’s conference
was ‘Change’. Over two days I had the
opportunity to take the time to listen to
speakers and panellists to consider the key
changes in how performance work is made,
presented and seen. What this offers me
(and those who attend) is the time to meet
with colleagues from around the country
to discuss shared problems and issues and
to talk about how each of us is working to
overcome them. It gives us valuable time to
think and reflect resulting in a kind of renewal
of thought and most importantly of energy.
A speaker who stood out for me was
Declan McGonagle, Director of The National
College of Art & Design, Dublin. He spoke
about what are the true drivers of change;
the economy, demographics, location and
audience (both demand and behaviour). He
highlighted that two of the most important
drivers are accountability and relevance,
believing from experience that ‘intent’ is key.
Project established our associate artists
programme in 2005 in order to develop and
change the diversity of work we present – to
protect and support a number of individuals
and their artistic impulse. In 2011 we renamed
the initiative Project Catalyst to give a better,
more clear representation of how we view
the artists we work with. Our Catalysts
are agents and leaders of change. Their
work will not fix societal ills, or heal us as
individuals but they do confront the issues
and concerns relevant to all of us, helping
us to better understand and potentially re-
imagine how things could or should be.
I am interested in how we engage
in evolutional and revolutional change.
THEATREclub recently made the following
provocative statement; ‘Revolution is a
change of mind’, a call to action to consider
how we engage with performance. To
engage with any art work involves action
and active participation. Each audience
member brings their own belief system
and history. To quote scientist Peter Senge,
‘People don’t resist change they resist
being changed’. At Project Arts Centre, we
are interested in what our artists think and
how that influences or inspires others. Our
audiences are key.
In the coming three months we are
supporting the making of new work by junk
ensemble’s Jessica and Megan Kennedy,
Making Strange Theatre Company’s Megan
Riordan and THEATREclub, Doireann Coady,
Grace Dyas and Shane Byrne.
junk ensemble are already in the
rehearsal room with a great team of artists
working on Dusk Ahead which has been
www.projectartscentre.ie
10 / 11
commissioned by and will premiere at
Kilkenny Arts Festival. In this work they will
investigate blindness and invisibility and
are particularly interested in exploring ways
of seeing or perceiving things – things that
may not be there or may not exist. They
are interested in the move from domestic
to wild, dusk being the hour between dog
and wolf. With each new work, Jessica
and Megan never fail to create something
extraordinarily beautiful – something
different, striking and bold. When you sit
and feel their work you are brought into a
new environment, you are transported and,
by the end, transformed. I can’t wait to see
this work because I just can’t resist being
brought on a journey by this talented duo.
Megan Riordan is creating a piece
called You Remember the Stories You
Wish Were True for this year’s Dublin
Fringe Festival. Megan is from the US
(although recently she proudly became
an Irish Citizen so luckily I now proudly
and officially call her one of us!). Her
starting point for the piece was the
personal loss of the contents of a storage
unit, and consequently every single item
from a four year period of her life. Since
then Megan has been looking at how to
reclaim memories and has researched the
neurobiology of memory, learning and
change. She has become fascinated by
how remembering something is to change
it but to not remember is to lose it entirely.
I’ve worked with Megan for five years
and she manages with each new work to
charm me with her unique outlook and
perspective on life. But be warned, Megan’s
charm is not shallow. She uses it to great
effect. While Megan tells you about herself,
in a real and honest way, she manages to
disarm you, leading you to carefully look
and ask real questions of yourself. Keep
an eye out for the Dublin Fringe Festival
programme launch on 14 August and grab
a programme to make sure you get a
ticket – it’s one not to miss!
THEATREclub’s History is a two
year long Dublin City Council’s public
art commission for St Michael’s Estate.
THEATREclub make contemporary socially
engaged performance with and for
communities. For the past twelve months
they have worked with people from St
Michael’s Estate workshopping and writing
with activists groups, groups for those in
additction treatment, women’s development
groups and family support organsiations
as well as a group for marginalised young
people. The production will discuss Irish
Nationalism around a week in 1916 in
Richmond Barracks, it will juxtapose the
lives of the people of Keogh Square with
the reality in Goldenbridge and will end
looking at the struggle for regeneration
led by revolutionary community leaders.
Doireann, Grace and Shane are three
power houses and when you put them
JUL—SEPT 2013
together, especially with their ensemble
(Ger Kelly, Lauren Larkin, Barry O’Connor,
Gemma Collins and Louise Lewis) their
work is explosive. Working with them and
watching their work is like being on a roller
coaster. At the end of each ride you feel like
you’ve participated in what is a thrilling
and active act of hope which you just have
to do again.
The work we support is made by
people for people and one of the most
important things in the work we do is that
we entertain while also posing questions
and provoking thought. In order for real
change or for revolution to succeed
it requires action from the majority.
It requires trust which in turn builds
relationships. It forces people together to
stand up for what they believe in. It is not
just dressing but politics itself.

Three hearts poundin’ loud, three lungs,
pairs of lungs, suckin’ louder, suckin’ hard.
Then softer, then calmer, then quieter.
Then quiet.
The Howie begins the story. The
Rookie concludes it. Mark O’Rowe’s elec-
trifying, epic tale is a wild, urban odyssey
through a nightmare landscape – hilarious,
grotesque and, finally, deeply moving.
Meet Ladyboy, a psychotic thug on a
quest to avenge the deaths of his Siamese
fighting fish. Meet malodorous adrenaline-
junkies Flann Dingle and Ginger Boy. Meet
Avalanche, a ski-panted monster looking
for love. Meet the tragic Mouse. Meet the
scabies-afflicted Peaches. Meet the Howie.
Meet the Rookie.
Howie the Rookie was first produced
in 1999 and took the theatrical world by
storm. Now this brilliant play receives
a major new production from one of
Ireland’s leading theatre producers.
Tom Vaughan-Lawlor, star of RTÉ’s
Love/Hate, plays both Howie and Rookie.
Brace yourself for an adrenaline-filled
theatrical odyssey.

“Don’t think for one minute I’m going to
just disappear and let the two of you play
happy families … That is not the deal here,
that is so not the deal!”
High-flying real estate agent Kay
Keane isn’t just earning a living for her
family, she’s making a killing. Meanwhile,
her husband and would-be novelist,
Alan, is staked out at home, minding
their children and earning ‘pin money’ by
writing best man speeches. Juggling the
modern-day demands of job and family
is not easy, but this sparring pair seem to
have arrived at a win-win situation. That is
until Marta moves in. Hired to take care of
their children so that Alan can finally write
his novel, this sexy, straight-talking Bolivian
nanny brings buried tensions to the fore. As
Kay stingingly observes, soon the entire
house is ‘smoking with lust for Nanny’.
Best Man is a devastatingly funny
play about family wars and the wreckage
caused when estranged parents compete
for the spoils of property – and children …
This bold new play from award-
winning playwright Carmel Winters deals
with the near-taboo topics of sex, power
and parentage within modern relationships.
Set in the intoxicating height of the boom
and, finally, the sober fall of the bust, Best
Man prompts a public reckoning of our
most private struggles as questions of
power within the family are examined with
scorching insight.
Following the nationwide success of
the B for Baby tour by the Abbey Theatre,
we are delighted to present a new play
from one of Ireland’s most exciting writers.

Foreign Bodies is the story of Adam,
a political hero fighting with commu-
nism in Poland. He is a perfect hus-
band, a good friend and a role-model
for others. But no-one knows that he is
a female trapped in his own male body.
So after the fall of communism in 1989,
when Poland gains political freedom,
he changes sex and turns into Ewa.
Now, as Ewa, she must struggle with
social rejection, poverty and solitude
in a new, capitalist country.
Mixing past with present, Ewa
discovers the dual imprisonment of an
individual in two political systems …

When they’ve taken the floor beneath
your feet, there’s nothing to do but fly.
Experience an exciting slice of airborne
circus theatre in Ether’s brand new
show, Landfall.
Four characters find themselves
in an impossible situation – they have
nothing to stand on. Suspended in a post-
apocalyptic landscape, a wild girl, a wistful
opera singer, a forlorn gardener and an
errant business man find themselves at
close quarters. There is hope – a garden,
glimpsed far off and out of reach. But can
they get there?
In Landfall the spectacular meets
the intimate and the dramatic meets the
comic with impressive acrobatic feats
and physical storytelling. Aerial circus
equipment – hoop, rope, silks, chains –
appear from floating, ragged sections
of building as Ether weaves wonder
from chaos in this breath-taking aerial
performance. Watch Ether speak volumes
without saying a word. Take your place in
Landfall as Ether forgets how to walk and
learns how to fly.
Ether Productions was founded in January
2012. The company’s debut performance
was the aerial circus show Mirror, Mirror,
commissioned for the Drogheda Arts
Festival in May, 2012. Ether then created
a highly successful further development
of Mirror, Mirror for ABSOLUT Fringe 2012,
where it won critical acclaim.

Written by William Shakespeare
Directed by Aoife Spillane-Hinks
Cast includes Jane Brennan
Shakespeare’s King John is a fast-
paced, witty and entertaining look at
a weak monarch’s flailing attempts
to keep hold of his throne. There are
extraordinary speeches, unforgettable
characters, and thrilling battle scenes –
so why don’t we see this play per-
formed more often?
Director Aoife Spillane-Hinks and
actor Jane Brennan experiment with
form to present a work-in-progress
showing of their King John project.
A unique opportunity to watch
an ensemble cast of Irish actors in the
process of taking on a rarely staged
but riotous political drama.

Welcome to the staffroom, you’re
invited in, but this time it’s not you
who’s in trouble. Meet the teachers –

The gallery will be transformed with intricate woven floor
pieces, talisman-like sculptures and a hint of performance, in
an exhibition of new work made for Project Arts Centre. The
exhibition expands on her fascination with cultural identity,
ritual and spirituality, to create a unique environment which
blurs the line between art and object, the exotic and the banal, in
an attempt to align the mind, body, and spirit all in one space.
Jennifer Tee (b.1973, Arnhem) lives and works in Amsterdam.
Her practice includes sculpture, installation, performance, pho-
tography and collages. Jennifer Tee has made solo exhibitions
in recent years at Eastside Projects, Birmingham (2010), Galerie
Fons Welters, Amsterdam (2009), Artspace, Sydney (2005),
Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, Museum voor Moderne Kunst,
Arnhem, (2003), Art Foundation Xiamen, Frankfurter Kunstv-
erein (both 2002). A selection of group exhibitions include: Six
Possibilities for a Sculpture, La Loge, Brussels (2013); Beyond
Imagination, Stedelijk Museum (2012); Secret Societies, Schirn
Kunsthalle; The Dutch Identity?, Museum de Paviljoens, Almere
(both 2011); The Knight’s Tour, Museum de Hallen, Haarlem
(2009). Jennifer Tee has also participated in the Prague Triennale
(2008), Auckland Triennial (2007), Gwangju Biennale (2006) and
the Sao Paulo Biennial (2004).

Coffee like no otherCoffee of the highest order, coffee that delights: this is illy’s mission, passion and obsession. A simple idea created through complex means: eight decades of experience; unmatched knowledge of coffee biology and chemistry; unrivalled skill at roasting; the pioneering of innovative, enabling technologies; and a family’s entrepreneurial passion.
There is a taste, a feel, an aroma that is all illy’s own. Velvety, immediately sweet, delicately balancing floral and fruity notes with caramel, toast and chocolate, naturally fragrant with aromas of almond and honey. You just might hold the sugar, for the very first time.
This is balance that comes only from a blend: the singular illy blend of nine highest-order Arabica beans, selected and directly purchased by illy from farms spanning four continents. Each individual bean contributing to a greater whole, for the pleasure of those who appreciate all that coffee can and should be.
In the cup, the illy blend becomes a symphony: rich, full, multi-faceted, yet subtle, comprised of immensely talented soloists, each coaxed to their finest performance under the hand of an expert conductor.
