SUMMARY:The Capulets and Montagues
DESCRIPTION:Book now on tickets.ie\nPaul Maher will be directing his own translation of ‘The Capulet’s and Montague’s or Romeo and Juliet: The Comedy’.\nThe play will be staged in the Hall of Teachers’ Club\, Parnell Square from 18 to 21 April this year in a cabaret style production with live music and dance. \nThis production is particularly exciting because \n•   Lope de Vega (1564-1635) is Spain’s foremost playwright and a contemporary of Shakespeare.  Though virtually unknown in the English speaking world he is hugely respected among Spanish speakers and is credited with writing over 1\,500 plays in his lifetime\, many of them classics of world theatre.  Some people may remember the evening in 2015 when Paul introduced Lope’s work to the society \n•   The play was written around 1603 by Spain’s foremost playwright Lope de Vega\, a contemporary of Shakespeare. While both playwrights\, writing at the same time used the same sources for their plays\, there is no evidence that either was aware of the other’s work. \n•   There are many similarities in the plots and\, of course\, significant differences\, not least of which is the fact Lope created a comedy from the material while Shakespeare created a tragedy. \n•   There is a broad correlation between scenes in both plays: a party scene in which the lovers fall in love at first sight\, a fight scene and killing after which the male protagonist is sent into exile\, a farewell scene in the garden between the lovers\, a sleeping draught that induces a death-like state in the female protagonist\, and a scene in a crypt. \n•   This is an English version produced especially for the Shakes. \n•   This may be the first production in Ireland of a play by Lope de Vega.  It is certainly the first in living memory \n•   By attending the show get the opportunity to evaluate how two masters of world theatre shaped brilliant but very different plays from the same source material. \nCheck out the interview with the Director – Paul Maher – HERE

SUMMARY:By the Bog of Cats
DESCRIPTION:Under licence from The Agency London\, Dublin Shakespeare Society proudly present this amateur production of \nBy the Bog of Cats\nMarina Carr \nDirected by Geraldine Maguire \n\nBook Now\nDownload A4 Poster \nCast\n\nMary Conlon\nBrian Murray\nCiara Cochrane\n\n\nMartin O Connor\nNiamh Delany\nPeter Prior\n\n\n Timothy Telford\nLouis O Byrne\nWillie Morrisson\n\n\nEimear SimmsKit GerathyBreege Fahy\n\n\nJulianna Gonzales\n  Noelle Timmons \n\nThe scorn of Hester Swayne\, a woman abandoned once and discarded later\, threatens a whole community as she awaits her mother’s return to the Bog of Cats: ‘God’s punishing me but I won’t take his blows lyin’ down’. Forgiveness\, vengeance and disparate forces figure in the tangled history embodied in her own powerful drama as it makes its way through heartbreak and\, occasionally\, hilarity\, and its secrets unfold towards its tragic conclusion. \nWednesday 14th June\,Special Guest : Dr Emilie Pine\, UCD \nEmilie Pine lectures in Modern Drama and Irish Studies. She joined the School of English\, Drama and Film in the spring of 2008. Prior to this she lectured for two years at the University of York\, following the completion of her PhD in Irish Theatre and Film at Trinity College\, Dublin. \nEmilie is Director of the Irish Memory Studies Research Network and Assistant Editor of the Irish University Review. She is currently a judge for the Irish Times Theatre Awards. \nEmilie will comment on the production which will then lead in to a discussion with contribution from the audience. \nDirector’s Synopsis\nMarina Carr’s plays are all inspired by the plays and legends of Ancient Greece. Carr states that By the bog of Cats was inspired by Medea by Euripides which was produced in the ampitheatre at Epidaurus in 431 B.C.  The play remained part of the repertoire of Ancient Greek Theatre and experienced renewed interest with the emergence of the feminist movement because of its nuanced and sympathetic portrayal of Medea’s struggle to take charge of her own life in a male-dominated world. \nHester Swane represents both Medea and the Traveller Community as she is the outsider shunned by the settled community because of her strange and foreign ways. She represents   The Other’\, the untouchable\, the people that society reject and therefore is ostricised by the community. With so many immigrants today in Ireland we are faced with the challenge of embracing different cultures. \nIreland today and the rest of the world has embrace capitalism\, industrialisation and materialism. Carr poses the question what space is there left in our lives for the wild\, the untamed\, for dreams\, ghosts\, poetry and song? She presents characters full of wit\, comedy\, tragedy and pathos. She explores the warped relationships in familiies and communities. The play is a microcosm of society’s struggles and the whole gambit of the human condition. \nNature itself is shown as monumental\, represented by the Bog\, which holds the secrets\, of the past and is ever changing\, mysterious and treacherous. Modern society is confronted by the ghosts of the past and the memories\, dreams and poetry of the human soul and spirit. We recognise Carr’s characters in ourselves. They are full of warmth\, dynamism\, courage with hearts struggling to survive the human condition. Carr shows us the unpredictabilty the transitory\, and vulnerable nature of existence. \nGeraldine Maguire
