Paler, Still, by Oonagh Wall
Production by Anseo Anois in Boys School, Dublin.
Set and Costume design
Set in a near-future Ireland where the Western World has eaten itself into anonymity and another Great Recession, Paler, Still is a new dramatic-comedy centered around two childhood friends. After Aisling suffers a mental breakdown, Liam brings her across the newly established border that separates the Greater Dublin Region from the rest of the country. In this abandoned hotel deep in Tipperary she can heal, convalesce and recuperate. However, old tensions simmer under the surface of this idealised place.

"The set, designed by Iris Liange, comprises a solitary room with a worn sofa and woven throw, rug, privacy curtain and hospitality table. A chalk-board floor is inspirational and is instrumental, at times, in directing the audience. The sheer voile curtain behind which Liam and Aisling announce themselves with full comedic effect transforms into the damp and mouldy grey wall of the hotel room."
"Go see Paler, Still to witness some excellent, emerging talent."
