This autumn/winter sees RTÉ presenter and broadcaster Aonghus McAnally as artist in residence with axis. This muchloved national treasure will be developing an exciting new project with axis and Cork-born playwright Seán McCarthy.
When Christy Hennessy passed away recently Ireland lost one of the greatest artists of his generation. A mesmeric performer and internationally acclaimed songwriter, he had, for some time, been discussing a special new performance of his life and work to premiere at axis. Sadly this was not to be, but axis’ Director Ray Yeates, Seán McCarthy and Aonghus McAnally will be producing a unique work about Christy’s life in a special preview this November*.

Following a 12-month sold-out New York run, and a major North American tour, Nilaja Sun’s OBIE Award-winning No Child… makes its Irish debut at axis: Ballymun during the 2010 Festival. Inspired by Sun’s years as a teaching artist at high schools in the Bronx, this tour de force is an insightful and often hilarious look into New York City’s public education system. Her lightning-quick portrayals of the many characters inhabiting the city’s school structure – including teachers, students, parents, administrators, janitors and security guards – provide a touching and humorous examination of the universal challenges facing education everywhere.
BOOKING OPENS AUGUST 18TH.
