Queen of the Meadows coming to Longford this week

Robyn Byrne presents the premiere of her evocative new dance duet, Queen of the Meadows at Backstage next week.

Looping and weaving through atmospheric underworlds, undulating movements, and sonic landscapes, Queen of the Meadows offers a glimpse into a world beyond our current reality.

Robyn is a contemporary dancer and emerging choreographer working across theatre, film and dance.

Queen of the Meadows is inspired by folk medicine, feminism and cyclic patterns in life and in history, the show invites us to trust our intuition, in order to break free from cycles we are trapped in.

Speaking about the piece Robyn said: “The inspiration for Queen of the Meadows came after the passing of my grandmother. I wanted to honour her life through dance and performance and pay tribute to a generation of women who, along with their folklore are slowly disappearing.”

The show takes place this Thursday, April 17 at 8:00pm, tickets are €10.
