Created for Live Collision Festival, 2015, at Project Arts Centre, Dublin.
Peter Coonan and Maud Lee star in this staging of a concept album combining twelve pop-styled songs with contemporary choreography to paint a tenderly moving portrait of a fractured family dealing with life after a crisis.
Winner of the Performance Award for experimental theatre created in memory of the director, producer and scriptwriter Romilly Walton-Masters, RECOVERY invites the audience, in near spiritual fashion, to reflect on their own experience of family and the many forms that recovery takes.
RECOVERY has toured to venues around Ireland and to the Centre Culturel Irlandais in Paris in 2017.
