Riverbank Arts Centre: A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings
17 August @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm AEST

In a kitchen, in a theatre, two storytellers and their audience discover something remarkable – a very old man with enormous wings – and invite us to speculate who he is. A neighbour believes he’s an angel, a priest claims he’s an imposter. Pilgrims flock to see him, hoping to be healed by him. They leave with something different than what they expected.
Winner of Best Design at the Dublin Fringe (2019), talented theatre maker Dan Colley has created a perfect show for all ages gorgeously formed around music, puppetry and live video, but also thoughtful and emotionally rich in its exploration of human nature.
