Closing Performance—Whistling Past The Graveyard

Pallas Projects is delighted to present a new work in progress by Lidija Šola & Sadhbh Moriarty to mark the last day of Maslow's Hammer.

Whistling Past The Graveyard is a new semi-autobiographical play in the early stages of development, after (Un)Holy Blood, the second collaboration of writer Sadhbh Moriarty and circus artist Lidija Šola.

This performance contrasts Šola's own experiences of "consumption" with the bizarre romanticization of illness in the Victorian era.

The event will mark an end to this year's Periodical Review, a long-running curatorial project which sets out to consider, revisit and review current movements within contemporary art practices from around Ireland.
