Scare in Cahir 2025-Into the Wild
In collaboration with Lumen Street Theatre and the broader community, our vision is to develop a themed event that introduces new ghostly creatures and wild animals from Irish folklore.
We propose conducting a series of workshops where participants will acquire techniques in mask-making, as well as creating impressive headpieces, props, and costumes. This program is scheduled to take place throughout September and October. These workshops will be delivered by Lumen street Theatre. We also propose to collaborate with a local drama group to conduct a series of acting workshops focused on adapting narratives from Samhain traditions, as well as local stories and folklore. The drama group will work in partnership with the Lumen Street Theatre team to achieve this.
Our aim is to utilise these new creations and showcase acting talents to establish a captivatingly eerie atmosphere along the forest trail near Cahir Castle.
