Crowman
Saturday 08 february
Set in a sparsely decorated kitchen, this
intimate one-man show starring Jon Kenny,
(D’Unbelievables), is a window into the soul
of a lonely bachelor, Dan.
A crow-hating man who noisily tries to shoo
the blighted birds away, Dan measures out
his life by the amount of funerals he has to
attend every week. They are social
occasions with the added bonus of
refreshments.
Dan, who vacillates between high comedy
by mimicking TV celebrity chefs and
pathetic admissions, including attending
Mass just to connect with another human
by shaking hands, is a master at distraction.
But one day, hearing a death announcement
on the radio, his world is shattered.

Dance
IN LiMBO
tuesday 11 february
Sitting in-between the two worlds of traditional
and contemporary, IN LiMBO takes a journey
where few have gone within Irish step dancing.
Four live musicians and ensemble of six
dancers take the basics of what makes the
tradition so attractive and translate it into a
new but still recognizable language of music
and dance. This production introduces the
audience to another possibility within a dance
form that they may not already know.
The creative life of an Irish dancer is relatively
undeveloped past competition and show
dancing. IN LiMBO choreographer Kristyn
Fontanella believes that many Irish dancers shy
away from questioning the established norms
of their dance form. The questions the

The Source Arts Centre
company has asked and the ideas they explore
through this piece are vital to the ongoing life
and development of traditional Irish dance.

“Take whatever chance you can to see this:
whether you know dance or not, you’ll find
something new.”
