Presented as part of COIL 2010
"A compelling constellation... vertiginous, playful and poignant" - Irish Theatre Magazine
Best Male Performer, Dublin Fringe Festival 2009
Performed at a grand piano by one of Ireland's most exciting new theatrical voices, Mimic is a poetic and extraordinarily prescient solo performance about a culture in economic and spiritual freefall. It is a story about a young man, Julian Neary, who becomes a professional Mimic and leaves home to get away from the culture and family life of 1980s Ireland, and about what he finds when he returns home years later. A dark satire about imitation, authenticity, and what happens to a nation that leaves its heritage behind.
Written, composed and performed by Raymond Scannell. Directed by Tom Creed.
