STAGE TUBE: FUEL Podcast - Waiting...Are We?

Waiting... are we?  by The Company in collaboration with Dr Jonathan Reades. Commissioned by Dublin Theatre Festival. This podcast was made possible thanks to the kind support from Culture Ireland.

The Company are a collective of theatre artists based in Dublin. They aim to make work that changes how theatre is made and seen by looking and learning from the everyday. In the past they have developed theatre works around issues such as identity, nationhood and politics. This will be their first public podcast. Upcoming work includes Politik at the Fast Forward Festival in Germany in November. Also, from November to January of 2014, The Company will be working in collaboration with Project Arts Centre's visual arts department on a project combining them and London based Italian artist Celine Condorelli.  The Company are BrIan Bennett, Jose Miguel Jimenez, Robert McDermott, and Nyree Yergainharsian. www.thecompanyireland.com. 

The Company's podcast follows their journey from Dublin to London, to record their podcast and explores themes of ageing, travelling, human relationships and technology. Of their podcast they write: 

"We decided to make this podcast for the same reason we make theatre- to analyse who we are and how we live and to present the findings for an audience to reflect on. We chose everyday human groups, old and young, visited them in their surroundings, and offered a chance to be part of a conversation. Luckily for us, they took it. What we have put together out of our material, we hope, provides an in-depth insight into our experience in making this podcast."
