New shows announced to Everyman’s online programme
The Everyman have announced additions to their exciting and varied Spring/Summer 2021 programme, featuring live audio and on-demand streams from Cork’s much-loved theatre.
From Tuesday, April 27 to Sunday, May 2, The Everyman are delighted to offer audiences the opportunity to access ‘Boland: Journey of a Poet’ presented by Druid, an on-demand video stream. With words by Eavan Boland, edited by Colm Tóibín, and directed by Garry Hynes, ‘Boland: Journey of a Poet’ is a new theatrical production exploring the mind and imagination of one of Ireland’s great poets.
Performed by Siobhán Cullen (Once Upon a Bridge, The Cherry Orchard, DruidShakespeare: Richard III), and live streamed from The Mick Lally Theatre in Galway, this world premiere production examines Boland’s relationships with family, poetry, memory, womanhood, and national identity.
There will be a live post-show discussion following the live stream performance on Friday, 23rd April. Garry Hynes, Colm Tóibín and Siobhán Cullen will be joined by moderator Jody Allen Randolph.
On Friday, May 7, you can see ‘Behind The Curtain: Lisa Hannigan Live From The Everyman’, the second of the live streamed Friday night events, bringing you the soaring vocals and textured musical arrangements of Lisa Hannigan.
Artistic director Sophie Motley says that she is delighted to include two more totally Made In Cork projects: Irene Kelleher’s ‘ Mary and Me’ directed by Belinda Wilde in a new, reimagined version (June 5-13) and Yasmina Reza’a ‘ ART’ directed by Éadaoin O’Donoghue (Thursday, May 20).
