Supporting writers and theatre makers in the development and production of extraordinary new work
DUBLIN FRINGE FESTIVAL
Welcome to Traumatraum
Created by: Philip St John (Writer), Karen Gleeson (Choreographer), Michael McCabe (Movement Director/Clown Artist) and Matthew Ralli (Director).
A broken dancer, a boy with a limp and a banjaxed clown, tumble into a topsy-turvy world of pain.
Injury and mobility impairment can jolt a life upside down - but it can also send it on an a surprising new path. A theatrical fusion of personal story, dance and clowning, this new show is inspired by the lived experiences of three collaborating artists.
After extensive research and development, Speckintime are excited to produce this new interdisciplinary work by Philip St John, Karen Gleeson, Michael McCabe and Matthew Ralli. Welcome to Traumatraum will preview on Sat 5th Sept in Mermaid Arts Centre, before premiering in the Dublin Fringe Festival, 17th - 19th Sept, in Smock Alley, Main Stage.
