www.thesourceartscentre.ie Meetings With Ivor Wednesday 03 May FIlM Time: 8pm Price: €9/5 Dir. Alan Gilsenan, Ireland, 2017, 81 min Ivor Browne has been a central figure in Irish mental health for many decades. Some people wish he wasn’t. Yet many people owe their lives to him. Browne somehow managed to be part of the establishment while still being one of its greatest critics. His pioneering and often controversial lifelong work on behalf of the many who cannot speak for themselves is notable. Alan Gilsenan’s new film captures the essence of this extraordinary human being. With contributions from Tommy Tiernan, Tom Murphy, Mary Coughlan, Sebastian Barry, Nell McCafferty and others. Good Buzz Productions presents Tender Napalm Friday 05 May ThEATRE Time: 8pm Price: €10 A couple try to navigate their way through the minefield of their relationship leaving a trail of chaos in their wake. Phillip Ridley’s Tender Napalm shows the destruction and re-creation of two individuals as they grope through their shared memories to create an intimate and moving story. Dynamic performances by Meg Healy and Templemore native Stephen Tadgh deliver a story that is stark and real. ‘Tender Napalm’ is full of life and vitality, excellently devised as the action battles against the core darkness of the story… the audience is treated to 80 minutes of intense performance that is both daring and delightful. – David Keane.
