Dodgems- 2008


 

 

"A clever, entertaining and suspenseful dance drama...full of surprises" Irish Independent

 

"Over two levels, the set is exquisite. A real bumper track morphs from pastoral scene to pole dancing club to nunnery and is a brilliant testament to CoisCéim’s characteristic and ingenious skills with staging." Stephen Mulkearn, Metro

 

 

"Director/Choreographer David Bolger & Charlie O’Neill hit on a marvellous concept, blending the exotic but unconventional ways of outsider circus folk, whose difference we revel in and even enthusiastically accept, with the experiences of our new outsiders … terrific staging and performances" Seona Mac Réamoinn, Irish Times

 

 

"the marrying of several folk dance traditions raised the roof" Seona Mac Réamoinn, Irish Times

 

 

"roll up roll up … … beautiful … poignant … humerous … show-stopping … CoisCéim show us why we’ve come"  Sophie Gorman, Irish Independent

  

"… the act of colliding versus the act of avoiding – and it underpins much of what O’Neill and choreographer/director David Bolger set out in Dodgems…. serges into a finale of show-piece dancing, a joyous and seemless integration of folk dancing styles" Michael Seaver, Irish Theatre Magazine

 

 

"… exciting and original piece of visual, physical, musical theatre…" Colin Murphy, Tribune Arts
