The Cordelia Dream
(90mins, Dir. Joe O’Byrne, 2021)
2.00pm– Glens Centre Main
Marina Carr’s play comes to life on screen, under Joe O’Byrne’s direction, with the mysterious and tense confrontation of woman and man. When Woman (played by Danielle Ryan), haunted by her dream of Cordelia and King Lear, confronts Man (Stephen Brennan), their disturbed relationship is exposed. As his musical protegé, she has come seeking enlightenment, but he orders silence. Fast forward five years, and she returns for one final visit. Will this result in mutually assured destruction?
Post-screening discussion with Joe O’Byrne.
