Accidental Death of an Anarchist

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Wednesday November 06, 2002 18:13author by wisp - spacecraft Report this post to the editors

While the press trails along behind enquiries- Dario Fo and spacecraft hit the nial on the head

Come support and enjoy one of the finest pieces of politcal theatre ever in Dublin- @ the Liberty centre, Liberty Hall.

At a time when police methods are under scrutiny by our eagle eyed mainstream
press. And evidence mounts of coverup, falsification, bomb planting and
the odd murder- come see the play that takes everything bent and gives it to you straight.

Spacecraft
Present
Accidental Death of An Anarchist
by Dario Fo
Adapted by Les Shine and Felix Forde
Directed by Oonagh McLaughlin

Following our success at this years Dublin Fringe Festival Spacecraft return to The Larkin Room in Liberty Hall with their exciting new adaptation of Dario Fo’s political satire Accidental Death of An Anarchist. The text has been reworked to a contemporary Dublin context and explores the aftermath of recent police violence. Spacecraft use their trademark bold visual and physical style to deal with this issue through farce and slapstick comedy.

“Highly entertaining romp” “Lots Of Laughter” “ Lunacy directed by Oonagh McLoughlin triumphs” Gerry Colgan , Irish Times

“Fo’s anarchic and deeply-intelligent comedy makes a perfect vehicle for examining the indefensible apparently, and coming up with seriously disturbing explanations for some our most cherished institutions” Emer O’Kelly, Sunday Independent.

At
The Larkin, Liberty Hall
Dublin 1
Preview Monday 28th October at 8.15
Opens Tuesday October 29th until Saturday 16th November

What Spacecraft have done with this play is amazing! yet they keep the spirit of of Dario Fo's
original script in many ways!
You will not have seen anything like this on stage in Ireland - think Scrap Saturday x 100 on stage.
The lead actor is mesmerising he will just blow you away, and the clever depiction of Irish cops is, well you'd have to have met an Irish cop just once and it all comes streaming back but for those of us who have been in regular contact with a few, this is the ultimate piss take!
From the minute the play starts you know your going to laugh till the very end!
This play deserves massive support so Spacecraft can bring us something as rockin in the future!

Classy!

How do we know that his death was really an accident? it could very well have been a bolshevik leninist plot! Remember Kronstadt!!
