Touch Me by Coisceim at Cork Opera House

CoisCéim Dance Theatre presents
TOUCH ME
Set among the remains of a boarded up room, a group of strangers look in from outside. A set of keys unlocks the door to hidden gems left behind. What was that promise that you made?

In 1995, CoisCéim produced the critically acclaimed Reel Luck which looked at Ireland on the cusp of the Celtic Tiger. Touch Me reflects on Ireland today and the transformation from tiger visions to the exodus of the once majestic cranes. From this lonely landscape David Bolger rakes through the spoils of an unprecedented era to discover a new beauty in the promise of the future. What are the new symbols of fortune? What makes us happy now?
