Pippa Molony is a multidisciplinary artist from Dublin, working as a musician, filmmaker, photographer and writer (poetry, lyrics, prose, and scripts). Her work explores themes of personal experience, female identity, transgression, transformation, and growth.

Farah Elle’s debut album FATIMA reflects her journey from childhood in Libya to her life in Ireland, blending her North African and Irish heritage through powerful, cinematic music. Influenced by her family’s rich, complex history, Farah’s songwriting explores themes of displacement, identity, and personal growth. A self-taught musician, she has captivated audiences at major Irish venues and now shares her passion through music and wellness workshops.

Natalya O’Flaherty is a Dublin-based poet and performer known for her dynamic blend of rhythm, social commentary, and self-reflection. From open mics to major platforms like The Late Late Show and Electric Picnic, her work spans a range of genres and mediums, with commissions from RTE, Irish Tatler, and more. She also facilitates poetry workshops for young people nationwide and performs internationally.

Natasha O'Brien, a Limerick native and dedicated women's rights activist, was named Goss.ie Woman of the Year 2024 in recognition of her unwavering advocacy.

SANTA FE: Tales from the Modern American West

Smock Alley Theatre

Set against a vivid, shifting backdrop of American landscapes, Robert Caisley’s SANTA FE offers three stark and darkly comedic explorations of 21st century Americana. From a pair of self-serving, fair-weather talent agents with a twisted sense of loyalty, a disastrous first date which spirals into a catastrophically oblivious non-apology, to the tequila-soaked musings of a couple of middle-aged salesmen, SANTA FE explores the dark side of the restless "American spirit" and the subtle (and not so subtle) consequences of an impulsive sense of exceptionalism. Rich in wit and evocative image
