Recently explored in The Irish Times series The Street, Bridge Street, a street in Callan, Co. Kilkenny, was once a prominent midway point between Cork and Dublin.

Bridge Street, a site-specific show that explores a street in a regular Irish town struggling to keep onto the purpose it once had, will see Corcadorca Theatre Company collaborate with Kilkenny’s Devious Theatre Company and Equinox Theatre Company as well as international architectural firm Studio Weave. This show will be presented as part of the Abhainn Ri Festival in Callan this June.

A street with a long and storied history, audiences will get to explore it over the course of the show.

This week Director Pat Kiernan, Corcadorca and Scriptwriter John Morton, Devious Theatre Company are working on the script for Bridge Street.
