An international collaboration to bring a searing drama from Deirdre Kinahan to life, from the ever ambitious stable that is Fishamble.
“All war… it starts with stories, starts with lies.” Fishamble and Staatstheater Mainz present the Dublin premiere of REFUGE by Deirdre Kinahan. Acclaimed director Jim Culleton leads this Irish/German co-production with an international cast. 1710, Rathkeale, County Limerick. A community flees persecution in Germany and is offered land in Ireland that should never have been given. REFUGE traces their journey and explores the enduring connections between displaced communities of the past and those seeking safety today. It is a thrilling new play that weaves past, present and future: music and magic. Stories of longing, love and loss tear at the human need to find place, a home, a refuge.
