SAFE HOUSE

by Enda Walsh

︎We’re bringing SAFE HOUSE to NYC. 15th of February to 2nd of March 2025 at St. Anne’s Warehouse. ︎

★★★★★ The Guardian

Safe House, a new collaboration between writer-director Enda Walsh and composer Anna Mullarkey, is a dazzling achievement. In the form of a song cycle, with one live performer on stage, the experience is one of sensory envelopment through film imagery, orchestral composition, rippling sound design and Kate Gilmore’s stunning performance. Following his opera trilogy with composer Donnacha Dennehy and his Lazarus musical with David Bowie, Walsh continues to explore original ways of bringing text and music together, working with his frequent collaborators, lighting designer Adam Silverman and videographer Jack Phelan.
