Interpreted beautifully by the great Olwen Fouere, choreographed by Jessica Kennedy of Junk Ensemble, we frame Erina Brady's legacy in the context of the thriving contemporary dance scene in Ireland today. Interviewees include the late Patrick Scott, Rionach Ni Neill, Fearghus O Conchuir, Declan Kiberd, and others. Actors include Peter Sheridan, Tom Hickey, Pat Laffan, Michael James Ford, Una Kavanagh and Niamh Shaw. Dancers include Lucia Kickham and Karen Gleeson." Written by Deirdre Mulrooney See less
