Compelling drama Remember to Breathe comes to The Source

Compelling drama Remember to Breathe comes to The Source

Tipperary born writer and director Orla Murphy draws on her own emigrant experiences in New Zealand in her full-length theatrical debut Remember to Breathe.

The play follows three people trying to survive the aftershocks of the Christchurch earthquake. In a pool in New Zealand, recent emigrant Maeve is learning to swim. Her swimaholic coach spurs her on.

But even as she battles the water, Maeve’s heart is calling her home – to an unresolved dilemma with her much-loved father.

Remember to Breathe comes to The Source Arts Centre Thurles on Saturday, March 9 at 8pm.

Tickets cost from €14 - €16 .
