Distillation by Luke Casserly

A performative journey which takes you to the Irish bog through scent, created in response to the cessation of Ireland’s peat harvesting industry. Luke Casserly collaborated with renowned perfume maker Joan Woods to create a unique distillation of the Midlands bog as the starting point for an olfactory encounter which looks at our human relationship to place. Dedicated to the future of our broken landscapes – in the hope that by listening to them, we might be able to better understand them. Distillation premiered as part of Dublin Theatre Festival in 2023, and has since toured extensively both in Ireland and internationally.

Please note there will be moments of gentle participation throughout, including an invitation to hold and smell organic materials.

In partnership with Abbey Theatre, Solas Nua, South Tipperary Arts Centre and The Arts Council.
