By Jenny Macdonald
When life throws us a curveball, how do we find our next step? With humour and humility, The Tightrope Walker navigates a woman’s journey through crisis and recovery in a performance that captivates audiences with its warmth and presence. With love and deep observation, Jenny explores the precarious balancing act that is a serious illness and stitches the pieces of the story together in a different way each night.
An immersive, live operated sound design by Martha Knight, and opportunities for reflection or gentle engagement enfold the audience within Jenny's telling. An innovative theatrical form and an affirming tale, The Tightrope Walker connects us to the care, community and connection we may create in difficult times.
Supported by the Arts Council of Ireland, the Civic, Tallaght, the Irish Hospice Foundation, First Fortnight Festival and South Dublin County Council.
