Price: €15/12 conc.
Frederick Clegg is a socially awkward young man who collects butterflies. He
becomes infatuated with the beautiful, unapproachable art student Miranda
Grey. No longer able to watch from afar, Frederick does the unthinkable and
resorts to “collecting” her. What unfolds between the captor and the prisoner is
a battle of wills and an exploration of privilege that will have the audience
second guessing their inner moral dialogues. This gripping psychological thriller
will have you on the edge of your seats!
Based on the classic novel by John Fowles, The Collector is a story of possession,
obsession and love is considered one of the great works in modern literature.
Winner of Best Actor and Best Actress in The Waterford News and Star Theatre
Awards 2016.
Canvas
Works by Gerry Davis
Friday June 02 to
Saturday 29 July
VISUAl ARTS
Time: 10am – 5pm
(later on performance evenings)
‘Canvas’ is the second iteration of a body of work Gerry Davis has been working
on since late 2015.
These paintings are an exploration of the spaces in the Wickham Street Studios
in Limerick, where he works. Seeing the studios as a microcosm from which to
explore his own context within a wider art community, the paintings are both
autobiographical and outward-looking.
Originally from Cahir, Gerry Davis graduated from the Limerick School of Art and
Design in 2009 with a degree in Fine Art (Painting). Since then he has exhibited
regularly. He recently won the Hennessy Portrait Prize at the National Gallery
and received a Merit Award at the Golden Fleece.
