An Taibhdhearc presents Beckett sa Chreig: Guth na mBan / The Women’s Voice, four short works by Samuel Beckett, the second part in a series by Company SJ.

A compelling visual experience, told through the voices of the women in Beckett's Footfalls · Not I · Rockaby · and the reading of Fizzle 4 - set against the wild and physical landscape of the west coast of Ireland and the broken, haunted colonial architecture of Dublin.

Company SJ weaves together text, the body, unique film footage, and live music to explore relationships and trauma as shaped by history and embodied through the family.

Inspired by the language and landscape of Inis Oírr, this immersive Irish language production offers a rare opportunity to experience these works as never before.

English audio access is available for those without Irish.
