The James Joyce Centre, Thursday 26th November - Saturday 28th November
REVENANT is a visceral, frightening theatrical experience, marrying elements of horror and suspense with deliciously dark comedy in a reflection on the choices we make in pursuit of success.
After extensively touring the UK and a sell-out run at the Bram Stoker Festival, we are delighted to announce the Dublin return of Stewart Roche’s debut play REVENANT. Winner of the Best Production Award at the Buxton Fringe Festival 2023, Patrick O’Donnell’s performance earned him a Best Actor nomination at both the Manchester Fringe 2021 and the Buxton Fringe 2023. Revenant was also Nominated for the Stewart Parker Trust Award.
Carter, a gifted but volatile director, has found the perfect location to shoot his low budget zombie movie: a country house on a remote island off the coast of Mayo. With only three days to shoot and facing the sudden departure of his lead actor, Carter is forced to make a crucial decision – abandon the film or take a chance casting the mysterious Vardell, an actor with a shadowy past but extraordinary talent.
As the cameras roll, unnerving events and eerie occurrences hint at something much darker beneath the surface and Carter becomes increasingly suspicious that his decision may have been a grave mistake. . .
