Brú Theatre

We work bilingually between Irish and English and tour our work nationally. We’re committed to creating theatre and to developing artists in the West of Ireland, making multi-disciplinary work in Irish and English that explores the landscapes, language & stories of where we are from through a contemporary lens. We’ve six full productions to date and have multiple Irish Times Theatre Award nominations for our work. Our newest piece, Not A Word, was presented of the Galway International Arts Festival 2023, starring Raymond Keane.

Ar Ais Arís, an Irish language VR experience, had a sold out national tour as part of the Arts Council Brightening Air festival and the Galway International Arts Festival and has just toured to Montreal this winter as part of Green Season. In 2021 we presented The Libravian, commissioned by Baboró in partnership with Children’s Books Ireland, exploring themes of courage, identity and book cataloging while celebrating diverse stories by some of the finest Irish authors subsequently toured to Ottawa Children’s Festival last year supported by Culture Ireland.
