In a liminal space, a living room in disrepair, a room without a door, two exasperated characters recreate the greatest hits of old lives: a night at a rave, a favourite game show, an 80s music- video, passing the time or quietly clinging to distant memories of a life out of reach. As the narrative unfolds, the deeper precarity of their circumstances come into focus, leading the audience through a fever dream of questions and upended assumptions.
Presented across four, forty-five minute episodes, Volcano blurs the lines of experimental theatre, contemporary dance and psychological sci-fi thriller in live performance made for the Netflix era.
Volcano was the winner of four Irish Times Theatre Awards 2022, including Best Production.
