Real Life
Real Life is a soap opera.
It’s a cabaret.
It’s the drum beat at the end of Eastenders.
It’s a one man show with a cast of 15.
It’s about being an unfit mother, wielding a bread knife and dancing in a nightclub with your top off.
It’s about the things we like to think about; that may be unlikely to happen.
Bringing together a stellar ensemble cast and a team of Ireland’s leading designers and artists, multi-award winning inclusive arts company Run of the Mill are proud to present Real Life, a new contemporary theatre production that explores fantasy, reality and the art of facilitation.
