The Holding Bones | LexIcon Library and Cultural Centre
Nov 15, 2024 (UTC+0)ENDED
Dublin
“Poetry and Heart and Soul Food” The Holding Bones lovingly recalls a host of colourful characters - songsters, storytellers and mischief makers. In paying playful homage to her ancestors Niamh Lawlor contemplates the purpose of life. Her life. Set in her artist’s studio she draws upon her skills as a puppet maker and visual artist to enrich the tale she has to tell, as playful and funny as it is deeply moving. “just beautiful...cathartic, profound but also soothing” This new show for adults from local company Púca The Holding Bones is a fitting celebration of Samhain, All Soul’s and The Day of the Dead. At this time of year, they say, the veil between our world and the next is at its thinnest. Once we would have set an extra place at the table, left the door unlocked and lit a candle for each of our dearly departed at Halloween, with November marked as the month of remembrance. Here, Niamh Lawlor, veteran performer for nearly 30 years, counts her ancestors on her very bones and brings them back to life on stage. Vital theatrical storytelling invites you to join her in a meditation on family, memory and rituals of grieving and how to embrace the bitter sweet turns of the cycle of life. These are among the opening performances of a very personal yet universal show that has been crafted over several years, assisted by support from The Arts Council, DLRCoCo, South Dublin Live, a South Dublin County Council Arts Office initiative, Pavilion studio award, Draíocht, Mermaid and the Civic Theatres where work in progress sharings were well received by audiences : “Outstanding show, brought back so many memories, very emotional, laughed and cried, great”. “What a beautiful piece…it came from the heart and touched my heart… it hit all the senses” “Compelling…dancing with life and death and the shadows… Massive round of applause” Abbey Theatre New Work Associate Rían Smith gave this feedback: “We were captivated by the highly atmospheric mood created by The Holding Bones. The play’s interaction with belief and mythos, reporting dreams and urban tales, builds an ethereal and expressionistic sensibility, with the workshop-like setting allowing the themes of togetherness and being remade to feel present and powerful. The specific characters of the piece – Uncle Cyril, Aunty Barnie, the father – are conjured via thoroughly enjoyable details, the writing evoking both their simple and extraordinary natures, as well as their importance.” Writer / Performer Niamh Lawlor Production Manager Aimee Crilly Lighting Design Colin Doran ProducerPúca Developed in collaboration with Dramaturg / Director Veronica Coburn Visuals / Set Design Lian Bell Sound / Music Composition Sinead Diskin Running time approx 50 mins. Performances take place in the Studio Theatre next to the cafe in the lower floor of the Lexicon. After the Sunday performance there is an after show discussion. As the piece deals with bereavement it is not recommended for those under 16 years old.

On the night you will hear Dublin Social Choir, Soulful Sounds Leo Pharma, Sounds of the Sea and St Brigid's Community Choir all performing uplifting, inspiring and fun songs for you. And as part of the audience, you may even be asked to sing along with some of the classics that you will definitely know! Throughout the evening, we will take you on the journey of each choir and show you, through our songs, just how impactful community choirs are, not only to those who join the choir, but also to those people like you who come along to support. Community choirs are a wonderful way to foster musical talent, promote inclusivity and strengthen not only the community within the choir but also the broader community that each member comes from. Without your support, community choirs, like the ones you will hear on the night, wouldn't be possible. This will be a night for the whole family! Everyone is welcome! Your support is so appreciated!
