▪ Ratling by Genevieve Hulme-Beaman ▪
Friday July 31

Jacky keeps her house immaculate, her routine rigid and her diet exclusively Special K Red Berries. When something sinister scuttles its way into the safe haven of her home, she is rattled to her bones and buried desires, wild terrors and unsubduable impulses begin to gnaw away at her edges…

Could this be the end of the world as she knows it?

Or might this intruder awaken Jackie to the dangerous possibility of a life beyond the cage she’s built for herself?

Darkly hilarious and deliciously surprising, this is a wickedly funny exploration of fear, desire and glorious chaos.

This production is supported by an An Grianán Acorns Bursary award.

A performative journey which takes you to the Irish bog landscape through scent, created in response to the cessation of Ireland’s peat harvesting industry.

Luke Casserly collaborated with renowned perfume maker Joan Woods to create a unique distillation of the Midlands bog 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. Distillation premiered as part of Dublin Theatre Festival in 2023, and has since toured extensively both in Ireland and internationally.

Presented as part of the Earagail Arts Festival 2026

▪ Stage Beyond Theatre Company: The Caucasian Chalk Circle - Friday June 5 ▪

In a time of war, one woman risks everything to save a child. Years later, a courtroom will decide his fate. Who truly deserves to be a parent?

In the chaos of a military coup, kitchen maid Grusha makes a life-changing decision: she rescues an abandoned baby, the princeling Michael, and flees to the mountains. Risking everything, she raises him as her own – until years later, his wealthy biological mother, Natella, comes to claim him.

What follows is a gripping legal battle over love, duty, and justice. Presiding over the case is the eccentric Judge Azdak, who calls upon the ancient and decisive test of the chalk circle. Who will win?

Bertolt Brecht’s political post-war masterpiece – presented in Frank McGuinness’s vivid translation and specially adapted by Stage Beyond – brings epic theatre to life with urgency and heart. Challenging ideas of ownership, morality, and what it means to care, this is a story as provocative as it is deeply human and asks what gives anyone the right to be a parent?

Directed by Kate Guelke
Associate director Nora Kavanagh

Stage Beyond is an award-winning theatre company for young adults with learning disabilities based in the North West of Ireland.
