Alice and Alice are coming out. Now they’re in a show...reluctantly. Defying stereotype, they’re here to share with you something they’ve never dared to before. A fresh, human and hilarious piece from this defiant new company HotForTheatre, I ♥ Alice ♥ I explores the monumental journey of a most unlikely couple. Winner of two Absolut Fringe awards in 2010 including the Fishamble New Writing Award, this stirring piece of documentary theatre is an unflinching and acutely personal love story. Amy Conroy is in Six in the Attic – An Irish Theatre Institute resource sharing initiative. Absolut Fringe 2011: Eternal Rising of the Sun
Winner, Best Female Performer, Amy Conroy, ABSOLUT Fringe Awards 2011! To err is human, to dance divine. Meet Gina, she’s hopeless, everyone knows. She wants to be in a hot air balloon with Michael Jackson. She wants to cry during her Oscar speech. She wants to hit that high note that makes people gasp. She wants to soar…to fly… to move. But Gina is hopeless, so she can’t. This is the dark, moving and tender journey of Gina’s transformation. A poignant account of redemption and release. On the heels of multi award winning I ♥ Alice ♥ I, HotForTheatre brings you a compelling story of salvation, deliverance and barrel jumps. Nothing is impossible… well maybe barrel jumps, but Gina gotta’ dance.
8-17 September, Project Arts Centre
