About Scorched Earth

A murder, an interrogation, and a clouded world of fantasy and fear. "Scorched Earth" is part crime-drama, part thriller that plumbs a dark, but fundamental part of the Irish psyche. Murphy, creator of the multi-award-winning Volcano, blurs the lines of dance and theater to ask: What right do we have to the land beneath our feet? What are we willing to do to keep it?

Inspired by the John B. Keane’s seminal work The Field, "Scorched Earth" imagines a detective reopening a cold case, an unsolved crime twelve years after the fact. As stories are revisited and old wounds are opened, The Detective and Suspect fall into a world of memory, fantasy, ambition and resentment.

"Scorched Earth" is brought to you by the team who created the multi-award winning production Volcano, including Luke Murphy (director, choreographer, and performer), Alyson Cummins (set design), Stephen Dodd (lighting), and Rob Moloney (music).
