EX-hib-IT-US 2015

A contemporary opera written and devised by Outlandish Theatre about Dublin today.

Maud Hendricks and Bernie O’Reilly of Outlandish Theatre Platform spent 2 years working with the residents of St. Teresa’s Gardens (a Dublin 8 social housing estate) who were facing the demolition of their homes.  They asked the question: “What happens when the village you grew up in disappears?”.   This work led to a live performance and a film “Come into the Gardens”.  This exclusive insight into the lives of a community on the verge of destruction compelled Maud and Bernie to write the songs that became EX-hib-IT-US 2015.

This ambitious project has a cast of 7 with professionals performing alongside residents of St Teresa’s Gardens. It is opera unlike you have ever seen or heard it before.
