welcome to the new An

Táin Arts Centre

An Táin Arts Centre is the new arts space for Dundalk, Co. Louth based in the former Táin Theatre, Town Hall, Crowe Street. Established as an independent organisation earlier this year, the board of An Táin Arts Centre has been working behind the scenes to reimagine this wonderful space as a point of access to arts and culture for the people of North Louth, and together with a small team of staff, aims to provide a diverse programme of local arts, national tours, workshops, visual arts and in-house productions. It is heartening to see the commitment of Louth County Council towards the provision of arts to this community and we are in a fortunate position to have a three year funding agreement in place for An Táin Arts Centre. This support is not a privilege we take lightly, and in developing our programme of events we are ever cognisant of the rich heritage of the arts in this community - and in this building. It is telling that one of the first events to take place during the handover of the space to An Táin Arts Centre was the launch of the newly installed photographic collection curated by Joe Corcoran, ‘As You Like It’, in the Balcony Foyer. This unique collection documents some of the key participants in the Dundalk dramatic scene over the last century, and acts as a constant reminder to us of the creativity and ingenuity of the people in our community. This inaugural programme marks the launch of

An Táin Arts Centre, and a reimagining of this beautiful building. As well as housing a 355 seat theatre, a 55 seat studio theatre, a visual arts gallery and several workshop spaces, the ambition of An Táin Arts Centre extends far beyond these walls – so don’t be surprised to find our events throughout the locality. Programme highlights are numerous and include cinema in the Studio Theatre, opera and dance in the Theatre, three visual arts exhibitions in the Basement Gallery, and classes in drama, art and creative writing in our workshop rooms. Booking for events has never been easier, and we now have a newly designed website and mobile app where you can choose your seat and book your tickets at a time that suits you. Our box office will also be open Tuesday to Saturday 10.00 to 16.00, and our staff will be more than happy to help you with your booking in person and by telephone. The board of An Táin Arts Centre and I would like to thank the management and staff of Louth County Council for their support and welcome during the past few months. Together, we have imagined An Táin Arts Centre as a new hub of creativity for North Louth, with the best of local and national art programmed for the coming months - we hope to see you there. Paul Hayes Managing Director

Double Back Ciaran O’Sullivan

An exhibition of new paintings by artist Ciaran O’Sullivan. This is O’Sullivan’s second solo show in the Basement Gallery, with works including both figurative and portrait paintings. Although he works within the traditional genre of life painting, the techniques and methods used are far from traditional. Amongst the colours and textures of thick oil paint, we find figures within the scene, sometimes hidden, sometimes not. Each piece has its own mood or theme but the interpretation of such is often left up to the viewer.

The Rape of Lucretia Irish Youth Opera

14

Sept

Theatre 3.00pm €20 /€15 (conc) €12 (student) €8 (cinema deal)

Irish Youth Opera in association with Wexford Festival Opera present The Rape of Lucretia, an opera by Benjamin Britten. In this opera of devastating beauty a state of perpetual war exists. Terror has a grip on the land. Justice has been put on hold, truth blurred and only the strong prevail. In such times a public story must still be told, a story to make sense of a world in turmoil. A secret crime will be committed for which a public explanation must be found. Will it herald change or a whitewashing? What should we be allowed to know about how our history is shaped and civilisations are formed? This bold updating of Britten’s chamber masterwork will showcase the best of emerging Irish singing talent in a daring staging of this searing tale of civic corruption, sexual desire and the abuse of power.


CreateLouth is the arts service of Louth County Council.

Connor

M.A.D. Youth Theatre ‘Connor’ is an original short play devised by senior members of M.A.D Youth Theatre. It’s a dark comedy about some of the pressures of being a young male in today’s society. A pretty average teenager Connor has found himself part of the world’s crude and misguided rites of passage of sex, drugs and alcohol. All this to be a man? We will witness this rapid spiral downwards as Connor steps up to be the man who’s not ready to grow up. Voted best play and best actor by judges and audience - Prague Class in Action International Youth Theatre Festival 2014.

Sept

Studio Theatre 8.00pm €7

Fionán has little interest in a bachelor party: he would much rather stay at home and make seating plans with his fiancée Ruth, but when his micromanagement of the wedding begins to get out of hand, Ruth decides that he needs a nudge in the right direction. Enlisting the help of best man Davin, a stag weekend is planned: nothing crazy, just five friends on a simple camping trip in the Irish countryside. That is, until Ruth insists that her brother (nicknamed ‘The Machine’) is invited along too. While Davin tries his utmost to dissuade the notorious sibling, there’s simply no way The Machine is going to miss out on a stag party, and what’s more, he’s determined to make this a trip to remember! Starring: Hugh O’Conor, Andrew Scott, Brian Gleeson, Peter McDonald, Amy Huberman.

The Waiting Room Written by Shane Cradock

‘An inspirational comedy with a touch of soul.’ What is the waiting room? Join Mick, a normal guy living the good life, as he tries to figure out that exact question and how he got there. A contemporary story of our time, this comedy play juggles themes of life, love and second chances with dashes of the Mafia, Michael Jackson and technology giant, Apple. Mick is living an uneventful life with his fiancée Marie, until something incredible happens that turns his world upside down. With time against him, Mick has to make decisions that not only will determine his own fate, but also that of the entire universe. A fun night out for people of all ages, this comedy puts a magnifying glass on the way we can often live our lives on ‘automatic pilot’, while it just passes us by.

Psycho

Alfred Hitchcock, 1960 USA, 109 mins, 15A Starring: Anthony Perkins, Janet Leigh For all the slasher pictures that have ripped off Psycho (and particularly its classic set piece, the ‘shower scene’), nothing has ever matched the impact of the real thing. More than just a first-rate shocker full of thrills and suspense, Psycho is also an engrossing character study in which director Alfred Hitchcock skillfully seduces you into identifying with the main characters - then pulls the rug (or the bathmat) out from under you. Anthony Perkins is unforgettable as Norman Bates, the mama’s boy proprietor of the Bates Motel; and so is Janet Leigh as Marion Crane, who makes an impulsive decision and becomes a fugitive from the law, hiding out at Norman’s roadside inn for one fateful night.

Becoming Aoife Ward

Aoife Ward was born in 1993, and was raised in Dundalk, County Louth. Specialising in Fine Art in Belfast’s School of Art, she now studies between Dundalk, Belfast and Den Haag in the Netherlands. Aoife primarily works through paint and video: this is her first solo show. Heavily stained by personal experience in the places she lives, Aoife Ward’s painting and video work depict snippets of repressed emotions from day-to-day encounters. Process is integral to each piece. In her painting work, abstract forms and gestural lines create compositions which focus on the visual interests of colour, tone and

texture. The video and sound pieces explain her thinking, and demystify the painting process. “I use gestural application of paint to describe my experience of creating myself as a woman: the preening, rubbing, shedding and covering in a constant strive towards perfection. The need for us all to project a flawless exterior is reminiscent of an artist’s struggle to create the perfect composition.” ‘Becoming’ is the first instalment of the Basement Gallery’s Emerging Artists series.

Studio Theatre 8.00pm €14 /€12

Contemporary art-making blends with local, personal and popular heritage in a unique and unsentimental cocktail for the here and now. Under the guidance of artist Feidlim Cannon (Brokentalkers), seven performers develop a contemporary, living history exploring the social history of a Louth town through personal recollections of growing up and living there. The global and the local collide through the prism of favourite TV shows, cinema and song celebrating a peoples’ history of themselves. The performance is a real, sometimes surreal, re-presentation of stories, memories and reminiscences.

“Part documentary, part theatre, it is by turns hilarious and heartbreaking, simple and surreal,” The Irish Times. 

Opera Theatre Company presents

The Elixir of Love

( L’elisir d’amore) Donizetti’s Famous for its spellbinding music and sublime arias, especially Una furtive lagrima, Donizetti’s ever-popular romantic comedy The Elixir of Love has it all, from unrequited love to devious deception and thwarted passion. Innovative director Oliver Mears updates the action, transfering it to a university campus, where Adina is a lecturer and Nemorino a nerdy student. Desperately in love with the beautiful but unattainable Adina, Nemorino is conned by fraudster Dr Dulcamara to buy some fake love potion, pledging himself to the army in order to pay for it. Sung in English, The Elixir of Love features a powerful cast led by Anna Patalong as Adina (who recently made her Royal Opera House Covent Garden debut) and Irish Soprano Sarah Reddin making her OTC debut, “who sparkles as the coquettish Giannetta” (Irish Times). Other cast include OTC stalwart John Molloy (Trinity Moses, Mahagonny and Zuniga, Carmen) as the crafty Dulcamara and James McOran Campbell as Belcore the lusty army recruitment officer. OTC Artistic Director Fergus Sheil conducts the 12-member orchestra and professional chorus.

Design is by Annemarie Woods, with costumes by Ilona Karas and lighting by Kevin Treacy. The Elixir of Love is a co-production with NI Opera and is nominated in the Best Opera category in the Irish Times Theatre Awards. “Mears’s fast moving Inventive and sensitive staging was full of good things. This was among the most unaffectedly heart warming and well thought out Elisirs you could hope for,” Opera Now
