Following the critical acclaim of spindle collective’s first work, SAMCA, comes a new dark folklore play by Natalia Bushnik and Kathleen Welch. síofra follows a newlywed couple in Belclare, Ireland, in the late 1800’s, and the tragedy that occurs when they build a home on a supposed ‘fairy mound’ underneath the famed Knockma Hill. Exploring the myth of Irish changelings, síofra is Act II of the ‘Dark Mother Trilogy’, a series of three horror-theatre plays exploring fertility and motherhood through the dark folklore of three different countries: Romania (SAMCA), Ireland (síofra), and Germany (spilleHOLLE). With an extremely talented ensemble cast and original music by Welch, join us at the foot of Knockma Hill, Ireland for a play that is both sinister and mysterious.
