Event Description

A Virtual Reality Opera! This award-winning bilingual production reimagines opera for the digital age. With a VR headset, explore a stunning animated world where you can move, interact, and choose your own path through an immersive and evocative experience. Out of the Ordinary/As an nGnách tells the tale of a community forced to flee their barren homeland, which, due to their own actions, can no longer sustain them. Nalva, our main character, builds a boat to take her people on an epic journey to find a new home. But as they begin their voyage, they don’t realise they are being pursued… Written by composer Finola Merivale and librettist Jody O’Neill. Directed by Jo Mangan with communities from Inis Meáin, Tallaght and South Dublin. Sung in Irish and English. ‘Opera like you’ve never encountered it before.’ Irish Times Note: This VR experience is unsuitable for those under 14, pregnant, prone to seizures, with pacemakers, serious balance/vision issues, or under the influence of drugs/alcohol.
