Surrender yourself to "90 minutes of ritualised ecstasy" (The Irish Times) as Michael Keegan-Dolan and Teaċ Daṁsa return to the Festival with a stunning new work.
"Alternately playful and provocative, funny and frightening, MÁM is a stirring, sensuous showcase of the emotional power of the physical form” (The Irish Times). Bringing together virtuoso Irish traditional concertina player Cormac Begley, the European classical, contemporary collective, s t a r g a z e and 12 international dancers from the Teaċ Daṁsa company, MÁM “overflows with depth and soul ... a heavenly, glorious, wildly whirling dervish (The Arts Review)."
Michael has a strong connection with this Festival, starting in 2008, with his productions of Giselle, Rian (2014) and Swan Lake/Loch na hEala (2018). In 2019, he got closer, with a six-week residency, Made in Wellington, where Michael and his artistic collaborators began the creation of MÁM.
There was not a single seat left unsold at the recent World Premiere season at Dublin Theatre Festival, so get your tickets quick for this strictly limited run.
Directed and choreographed by:
Michael Keegan-Dolan

Co-produced by Teaċ Daṁsa, New Zealand Festival of the Arts, Dublin Theatre Festival and Sadler’s Wells London with support from NOMAD and NASC touring network.
