GUEST HOST STRANGER GHOST
by Kate Heffernan
Directed by Eoghan Carrick
A Gate Theatre GATECRASH as part of Dublin Theatre Festival
ABOUTA story about living in someone else’s home, performed on the sets of other people’s plays. A mismatched trio rent a house owned by an elderly woman now living her last days in a nursing home. Unlikely housemates, they try to find a connection in the short time they’re here – and a space for themselves amongst the stuff of her entire life. Playful and boldly inventive, this vagabond new play will criss-cross the city to borrow the stages of other festival productions. With no two performances taking place on the same set, each iteration will offer a completely unique encounter. A world premiere from Stewart Parker Trust Award winning writer Kate Heffernan (In Dog Years I’m Dead, Peat), Guest Host Stranger Ghost is a hilarious and heart-rending cry for a moment of stillness in a life of transience. Supported of Mermaid Arts Centre and Dunamaise Arts Centre. Funded by the Arts Council | An Chomhairle Ealaíon. Ages: For ages 14+ Audience Advisory Contains conversations about sex and death. |
