Based on some of the finest contemporary writing in the Irish language, Ar Ais Arís combines literature and visual poetry in a Virtual Reality experience. Brú Theatre Company's artists have created three 180° films, immersing audiences in a fusion of movement, text, music and stunning Connemara landscapes through the use of VR headsets. Described by The Irish Times as “a compelling piece of work that engages with both Irish cultural tradition and with the emerging future of theatre practice.”
