Welcome to the 9th Cork Midsummer Festival.

Asylum Productions and the Cork Midsummer Festival in association with European Capital of Culture: Cork2005 present:

pondlife angels by Enda Walsh

it's early morning and she's standing in her bedroom looking down on cork
right down to the quays people are out of their cars and looking up at her house in gurranabraher
she's wearing her minnie mouse nightshirt and for the first time she realises it's covered in her own blood.
they're waiting for her.


Specially commissioned for European Capital of Culture: Cork 2005, this world premiere from the award winning author of Disco Pigs and Bedbound traces a desperate day in the life of a Cork city checkout girl mapping out her ever-more nightmarish and frenetic journey through the streets of Cork, as she tries to make sense of her unravelling reality.

A comedy, a love story, a murder mystery, a soap opera, a supernatural thriller, all taking place in the split second between life and death.

“In the hands of Asylum Productions co-founder and director Donal Gallagher, Enda Walsh’s Bedbound is one of the most disturbing, emotionally draining and completely brilliant theatrical experiences imaginable.”
Jane Coyle The Irish Times
