  SubsidenceA daughter longs to guide her mother through the hardest of journeys of memory loss, paving a way with her own remembrance; for memory is an actor’s most powerful tool. Before the settling and subsidence of life, Hayley prepares to perform a show to honour her mother, Joan. Death is never convenient and despite the theatre being booked, posters printed, and tickets sold, it comes for Joan just before opening night. Subsidence gives grace to deep wounds laid bare as memory fails but love endures; deep, fathomless, patient love. A love that has come full circle, filled with hope and promise. The actor strides across grey days of grief, into the all-conquering silver spotlight of centerstage, to share a life well-loved and lived. Endorsement:	'Subsidence is a beautiful and tender rendering of memoir, driven by the author’s need to remember and honour her mother, who lived with dementia. O’Leary pulls the threads of memory together in a mesmerising weave: a gossamer spell. Her lived experience of theatre and her childhood with her mother are woven across timelines both past and present in this stunning experimental work. Subsidence is vital reading for those with loved ones experiencing memory loss.'–	Anna Jacobson (Author of Amnesia Findings)

  Druid Theatre - Fifty Years

  This fully illustrated and authorised history marks fifty years of one of Ireland's most ground-breaking and successful theatrical ensembles. Founded in 1975, Druid is a touring theatre company, anchored in the West of Ireland and looking to the world.
  Druid began as a bold idea: to create Ireland's first professional theatre company outside of Dublin. There were few resources with which to achieve such an undertaking in the West of Ireland in 1975. Through sheer dedication, and with the support of the Galway community, founders Garry Hynes, Marie Mullen and Mick Lally – alongside a protean ensemble of actors, crew and supporters – made this bold idea a reality. That reality has since become an international success story of extraordinary dimensions.
  In this comprehensive history of the company, Patrick Lonergan weaves together decades of personal stories, archival material, anecdotes, memories and performances into a fascinating and illuminating portrait of one of the most vital institutions in Ireland's theatrical landscape.
