DISTILLATION by LUKE CASSERLY
There will be two performances on Thursday and one on Friday. You MUST book tickets ahead of time, online or call the museum, because seating is limited. Due to the intimate nature of the show and the small audience size, we are not able to accommodate any late seating.
Written and performed by Luke Casserly.
Distillation is a response to the recent cessation of the peat harvesting industry in Ireland. Over the past year, Luke Casserly has collaborated with renowned perfume maker Joan Woods to create a unique distillation of the Midlands bog – the place where he grew up – as the starting point for an olfactory encounter which looks at our human relationship to place.
Dedicated to the future of our broken landscapes – in the hope that by listening to them, we might be able to better understand them.
"This ode to our landscape will give you a new perspective on Ireland’s bogs. All of the senses are engaged: not just sight and hearing but also touch, smell and even taste."—THE IRISH TIMES
