ABOUT PARK LIVES
In the lead up to Faoin Speir on Saturday 18 May 2023, choreographer Olwyn Lyons worked with a group of older people from the Artane area over several weeks. Together they developed movement ideas and choreography through creative investigation and dynamic dance workshops leading to the creation of a short dance film. Check out the finished film below!
