Terminus was the smash-hit of this year's Summerworks Festival and is now the inaugural presentation in the Off-Mirvish Season. Directed by Mitchell Cushman and written by Mark O'Rowe, the story is a unique type of 'Irish Rap Opera' which involves three interconnected tales told in a 'campfire' format. Starring Maev Beaty, Ava Jane Markus and Adam Kenneth Wilson, the show explores some dark and harrowing subject matter using descriptive rhyme.

Ritter, Dene, Voss is a delicious Beckett-meets-Brechtian farce. Thomas Bernhard explores the themes of sexual repression and familial rivalry (a fun combo) with great resolve and humor. Ritter, Dene, Voss introduces us to two sisters, who are part-time actresses and full-time heiresses. They are charged with the societal reintegration of their tormented genius brother Ludwig, a part-time philosopher and full-time grandstander, who has returned from a mental health institute. The result? They swallow each other alive.
