Footsbarn, the iconic theatre company that influenced a generation, returns to Galway for two nights only, when they present stunning new production, set in a dystopia where live art is restricted and technocracy rules, follows a rebellious family who run a secret theatre disguised as a travelling tearoom.
In a consumerist world stripped of emotion and creativity, they reenact lost plays, songs, and poems with wit and grace. The audience tastes the forbidden fruit of this quiet resistance, rediscovering the joy of shared stories.
This intimate performance is both a refuge and a rebellion—a tribute to art as a vital act of memory, connection, and defiance. In this sacred space, they ask: how do we preserve beauty and meaning when culture is threatened?
