Artist Support - LEGROOM Collective

We are delighted to welcome LEGROOM Collective to Draíocht this month.

LEGROOM Collective (Lucy Bruton & Caoimhe O’Farrell) will collaborate with performers Siobhán Matshazi and Juliette Christle to rehearse All My Friends Are in Australia ahead of its upcoming performances at Galway Theatre Festival and Cork Fringe Festival.

The company is excited to spend a full day at Draíocht developing the work in a dedicated rehearsal setting.

This audience-interactive two-hander invites spectators into an immersive exploration of friendship, distance, and the emotional complexities of choosing to stay in or leave Ireland as a young adult.

Founded in 2025 by Lucy Bruton and Caoimhe O’Farrell, LEGROOM Collective creates vibrant, devised, and immersive performance work, with a particular focus on engaging audiences in their twenties.
