What is the cinema was the only sanctuary for your relationship?
Sanctuary?s world premiere will be in the Galway Theatre Festival this October.
Commissioned by Blue Teapot? this poignant, funny and bittersweet play opens the window into the lives and relationships of people with intellectual disabilities (ID) and the obstacles they must overcome to be together.
An ordinary trip to the cinema and a welcome break from their training centre provides an opportunity for Larry and Sophie to steal away and be together at last. But now that they?re alone, what are they going to say and do?
Director Petal Pilley says ?My hope in commissioning this play was to present a living tragedy that demands discussion, awareness and a more enlightened response from our society towards the sexuality and relationships of adults with ID?.
Playwright Christian O?Reilly is well known for The Good Father (Druid Theatre) and Is This About Sex? Winner of Best Theatre Script 2008 Irish Writers Guild Awards. In Sanctuary, Christian has created characters that struggle within constraints of dependant living, looking to find privacy and space to express sexual and romantic fulfillment. Each character individually tries to deal with this reality and the situation in their own life.
This production is not suitable for children as it explores the subject of intimate relationships and sexuality
