Playing 'The Maids'

T1520316989
Playing 'The Maids' explores the dynamics of power and servitude, wealth-as-privilege, and the politics of intimacy in this seventy minute performance combining live music, text and movement/choreography. Two pairs of maids - Irish (Bernadette Cronin; Regina Crowley) and Korean (Jeungsook Yoo; Sunhee Kim), a Chinese Madame (Jing Hong Okorn-Kuo), a sound artist (Mick O'Shea), and a cellist (Adrian Curtin) weave together a rich web of musical, textual and gestural languages to create a compelling theatrical experience, inspired by Jean Genet's classic The Maids.
