The White Quadrangle Site Specific Performance UCC Quadrangle Jools Gilson-Ellis Richard Povall
Large-scale site specific performance commissioned by Cork 2005.
Imagine…A thousand white paper windmills placed in the grass of the quadrangle, their movement mingling memorial and frivolity. Sudden gusts of sound open every window in the quad, and out fly paper aeroplanes. University lecturers perform choreographed papers, whilst a gaggle of old men march into the quadrangle pushing buggies…Images appear on the entire North face of the quadrangle. Ogham script finds its way into choreography of the contemporary. Listen. It rains, and so the audience pulls blankets over their knees, sips tea from flasks under umbrellas.
