FEAR
  • Dublin

Fear is everywhere. Fear is nothing. Fear is necessary. Fear is nonsense. Fear is outside my back door. Two deer appeared. The sun shone. The deer couldn't see through the windows. A sudden sound came from inside the house. The deer's legs jumped instantaneously. A preparation to pelt into the woods. Then there was silence. The deer stood still. The deer pricked their large rotating ears. Ears leading, the deer curiously moved towards where the sound came from. The deer explored this source of possible danger. All species struggle for survival. Humans are one of 8.7 million species. All species on this planet Fear. FEAR is a new performance developed by Outlandish Theatre Platform as part of Open Theatre Practice, a weekly experimental performance making workshop, open to the public, which runs as part of their arts, health and community residency at the Coombe Women and Infants University Hospital. FEAR is co-created by an ensemble of fourteen performers, Fi�na Bolger, Dallal Bounekdja, Larissa Brigatti, Laurence Cunningham, Joan Somers Donnelly, Mark Dyer, Clara FitzGerald, Neo Gilson, Siber Habib, Olivia Hassett, Hannes Jung, Sabine Paschen, Rebecca Ryan, Wafaa Abusharekh and creative designers Oli Ryan (sound), James Hosty (movement), Sheila Murphy (lighting), Venetia Bowe (costume), Bernie O'Reilly and Maud Hendricks (concept directors). FEAR is kindly supported by the Arts Council, DCC and the Coombe Women and Infants University Hospital.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD
The Make A Difference Trust fights HIV & AIDS one stage at a time. Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
