Ishka
Theatre Company
A Red Day
Intriguing
visual theatre from Ireland. A cult hit at the Dublin Fringe Festival,
Ishka's debut production brings to life some of Picasso's most
famous Cubist images in a kaleidoscope of light, colour, movement,
sound and amazing body-masks. Ephemeral and fleeting, unfolding
in a land of surreal and incredible happenings, A Red Day
moves from playfulness to the tragedy of Guernica. Deviser-designer
Elaine Bastible trained as a sculptor, and then at the Lecoq School
where she developed her passion for mask theatre.
'You have to hand it to Ishka for daring ambition and originality.
What extraordinary creations those huge body-masks are, realised
stunningly by Bastible and the Company.' Irish Times
'Beautiful and striking theatre. A talent to watch and encourage'.
