Let's Spraoi! | Short film
Artistic Direction by Mia DiChiaro

In this enchanting short film, a group of children embark on a vibrant dancing journey through lush gardens, a majestic castle, and sprawling field. Playfully they explore texture, sound, and wonder of their surroundings, discovering the geometry of their bodies in harmony with nature and architecture of the castle central to their North Tipperary town of Nenagh. The film is brought to life by a captivating soundscape, composed by Daithí MacCruitín, featuring the delightful sounds created by the children themselves.

Monsters | Performance

Join us on an enchanting journey where imagination meets reality in "Monsters", a captivating dance performance for children.
Through lively choreography and vibrant storytelling, this piece explores the world of monsters, fables and fears. Can humans and monsters learn to overcome their fears and dance together in harmony?
Filled with humour, heart, and a sprinkle of magic, "Monsters" teaches us that friendship can be found in the most unexpected places.
