THE HEAD OF RED O’BRIEN

Writer, Mark O Halloran crafts a tragic-comedy in which ‘Red O Brien’ reflectson the disintegration of his relationship with his wife while displaying passionate storytelling on subjects as diverse as Sean Connery, James Joyce to the ‘Cold war’. At times moving and tragic, at others funny and warm, The Head of Red O Brien is the journey of a wounded and sensitive man from conflict to resolution, ultimately towards a higher realization.The audience is further immersed into the mind of O’ Brien by the use of specially commissioned evocative imagery and sound from the visual artist Ronan Casey and by composer/musical artist Mark Long.The combination of live theatre merged with music and video artistry promises to be a uniquely captivating experience. This will be the first time this work has been presented outside Dublin.
