Earthfall - At Swim Two Boys

Staged entirely in water, and set against the backdrop of the Easter Rising, Ireland in 1916, this piece of dance theatre, featuring two male dancers and two musicians, juxtaposes the developing love affair between two young men with political turmoil in Ireland and the slaughter on the Western Front – contrasting the dream of national liberation and the search for personal freedom.
Jim Ennis and Jessica Cohen created the work in 2005 and after a sell out tour last year, it is touring again this spring – coinciding with the 10th anniversary of the novel by Jamie O Neill – on which the show is based.
