The Dublin Fringe Festival in association with the CityArts will present a play from the highly acclaimed Romanian director, Nona Ciobanu. Orpheus or How to Undress Your Feathers has already been a sensation in Europe with minimal text and an extensive use of multimedia.

This is a moving production that involves concepts of love and death, desire and yearning to understand life in a concrete way. The audience will enjoy a performance that uses little text and instead focuses on expression through music, movement and multi-media.

Orpheus or How to Undress Your Feathers is a modern interpretation of the eponymous hero and his love, Eurydice. A talented composer named Alexander Balanescu who has collaborated with the Pet Shop Boys, Michael Nyman, Kraftwerk, David Byrne and Philip Glass has composed the score to Orpheus.

Nona Ciobanu is an acclaimed director working as Resident Director at the Mic Theatre in Bucharest. She is also the Co-Founder of Toaca Cultural Foundation which is a non-profit non-governmental organisation which promotes contemporary arts and offers young artists training and support.

Orpheus or How to Undress Your Feathers is a visually stunning and powerful show received rave reviews at the recent Edinburgh Fringe Festival and in Europe.

To coincide with this powerful production a panel discussion entitled Theatre and the City:Dialogue and Dissent will take place on Thursday, 22nd September at 2pm in the Project Cube. The speakers will include Nona Ciobanu (Toaca Cultural Foundation, Romania), Michael Klien (Daghdha Dance Company, Limerick) and Aisling Reidy (Irish Council for Civil Liberties).
