Spear
Three old friends meet in an abandoned athletics field to drink into the early morning. Many years have passed. Between them, the diary of an old friend, now an Olympic gold medallist. Who have they become, since they last spoke? What remains of those boys? If one is world champion, what does that make the rest of them? Spear is a Dublin Fringe Festival commission. Also supported by Smock Alley Theatre and the Rachel Baptiste Programme 2021, with additional support from field:arts and South Dublin County Council.
