THE FALL

Watch them navigating their world and ours, living and loving 21st century style, perfect and ideal in every way. Right?
Inspired by an iconic plaque commissioned by astrophysicist Carl Sagan, a pictorial message placed on the Pioneer 10 in case it was intercepted by extra-terrestrial life, The Fall is new dance production and a kitchen-sink drama set on a space station.

Tinariwen are guitar-poets from the southern Sahara desert and icons of freedom and resistance among their own people, the nomadic Tuareg of the Sahara. Their back-story has been described as 'dramatic' (The Independent), 'the most compelling of any band' (Songlines) and 'the most rock 'n' roll of them all' (The Irish Times). Tinariwen's rolling, yearning grooves and uncompromising messages of simplicity and freedom, distilled over many years of struggle, rebellion and exile, have brought them countless accolades and the attention of such high-profile fans as Robert Plant, Carlos Santana, Brian Eno, Damon Albarn, Chris Martin and Thom Yorke, as well as the enduring respect of their own people.

Cruachan Aí Heritage Centre
Nestled neatly in the undulating landscape of Roscommon's central plain lays the ancient Royal site of Rathcroghan. This archaeologically rich region was once the capital of Connacht and an important spiritual site, dominant in Ireland's mythical and physical histories home to both literary and historical High Kings. On the weekend of April 13th to 15th 2012, the Cruachan Aí Heritage Centre, Tulsk Co. Roscommon will host the first Rathcroghan Archaeological Conference. While this Royal site has been recorded in the annals of history, it has been over looked in some areas in favour of other sites. This conference will provide an opportunity for the presentation of a number of important findings regarding Rathcroghan and Medieval Roscommon More

Starring Pat Nolan, Gene Rooney, Jo Linehan & Stefanie Preissner and directed by Tara Derrington, this moving yet uncompromising new play examines what it means to have unanswered questions after the death of a parent.
