Recipient of a 2025 Patron Donation Award.

CoisCéim's FIREBIRD by David Bolger will take Stravinsky's masterpiece for the Ballet Russes and reimagine it for today's Ireland – recounting this powerful story of hope through the body of a single dancer – in a large scale, flamboyant presentation that will push the boundaries of stage magic.

Pavilion Theatre has been a key collaboration partner for over twenty years – from NUTCRACKER to DANCEHALL BLUES, CoisCéim has staged fourteen (14) productions at the venue since 2005. The symbiotic relationship between David Bolger and the people of the area, together with our complementary approaches to meaningfully building audiences for accessible, bold, high-quality, artistically ambitious physical theatre and dance, underpins our special bond with the theatre.  

Premiere in 2027 - stay tuned for updates...
