Following the critical acclaim of spindle collective’s first work, SAMCA, comes a new dark folklore play by Natalia Bushnik and Kathleen Welch. síofra follows a newlywed couple in Belclare, Ireland, in the late 1800’s, and the tragedy that occurs when they build a home on a supposed ‘fairy mound’ underneath the famed Knockma Hill. Exploring the myth of Irish changelings, síofra is an ensemble piece with original music that is both mysterious and sinister.
