A DAZZLING ninety minute marathon is promised for glór later this month as the dancers and players of MÁM take to the stage of the Ennis venue.
Described as a meeting place between soloist and ensemble, classical and traditional – MÁM will bring together the virtuoso, Irish traditional concertina player Cormac Begley, the European classical, contemporary collective, s t a r g a z e, a young girl and twelve international dancers from the Teaċ Damhsa company.
Tickets costing between €27 and €30 are currently on sale at glór for the show which will be held on Tuesday October 25th and again on Wednesday October 26th.
The original music from Cormac Begley and the stargaze ensemble plays a key role in manipulating the mood, as the initial celebration turns savage, as tenderness is juxtaposed with rage, as joy trembles on the edge of violence.
Michael Keegan-Dolan and Teaċ Daṁsa have created another mythic yet timely production that acknowledges how life’s opposing tensions and contradictions can on occasion come together and find resolution.
The show was nominated for an Olivier Award for Best New Dance Production in 2020 and was nominated for two UK National Dance Awards in 2021. MÁM follows on from the success in 2016 of Loch na hEala—his acclaimed reimagining of Swan Lake.
