SAFE HOUSE (February 18 - March 2, 2025) continues St. Ann’s longtime championing of the singular work of Tony Award-winner Enda Walsh, whose haunting and visionary plays — The Walworth Farce, New Electric Ballroom, Penelope, Arlington, Misterman, Ballyturk, Medicine, his adaptation/direction of Max Porter’s Grief is the Thing with Feathers—and first opera The Last Hotel have all been introduced on American soil at St. Ann’s Warehouse. In this production from the Abbey Theatre, Ireland’s national theater, Walsh teams up as lyricist and director with electronic-acoustic composer Anna Mullarkey. The exquisite performer Kate Gilmore plays the role of Grace. “A dazzling achievement…in the form of a song cycle” (The Guardian, in a five-star review), this “beautifully realized, multifaceted work” is an experience of “sensory envelopment through film imagery, orchestral composition, rippling sound design and Kate Gilmore’s stunning performance.” In Walsh’s own words: “I’ve never made anything like this before. It’s a brand new form for me. A song cycle. A theatre memory play. A cut up film. A gig. It’s not for me to say what it is really. It’s its own thing.”
