⭐️ CANDY IN PANTOLAND ⭐️

Promendade and The Everyman in association with Mockie Ah! present - CANDY IN PANTOLAND - Ireland’s first all drag Christmas pantomime!

Written by Candy Warhol and directed by Des Kennedy

Candy Warhol is the world’s most talented drag queen (just ask her!) but nobody knows it just yet. After a series of career setbacks, she finds herself transported to a fantastical fairyland where she embarks on a queer crusade through the wonderful world of Pantoland.

Based on a 100% true story, and winner of the 2027 Tony Award for Best New Play (they already promised!), Candy is joined by her eccentric mouse Gus Gus and a host of familiar fairytale friends on a hilarious magical adventure like no other! As they battle to escape the claws of The Wicked Witch and her evil queens, Candy and her pals must face more drama than an Eastenders cliffhanger, more tension than a Traitors round table, and more camp chaos than a Housewives reunion.

Ireland’s first all-drag pantomime promises to be the campest show this Christmas season – Oh yasss it does!

Featuring an international cast, prepare yourself for huge laughs, jaw-dropping costumes, major musical numbers, spellbinding surprises, shocking twists and plenty of audience participation.

The ultimate festive night out, perfect for parties and celebrations, this is panto like you’ve never seen it before. Running for two nights only, grab your tickets now and prepare yourself for an epic drag adventure!

"✨️ Madalena nasceu e está sendo celebrada em uma terra diferente da de muitos de seus ancestrais.
Hoje, honramos o rio Lee como um dos rios de sua história.
Não substitui os rios, terras e águas que vieram antes dela. Em vez disso, junta-se a eles.
Que Madalena cresça sabendo que pertence a muitos lugares, muitas histórias e muitas gerações.
Que ela carregue dentro de si a sabedoria de muitos rios, a força de muitas mulheres e o amor de muitas comunidades.
Que ela saiba sempre que a identidade não é diminuída por ter muitas raízes; ela é enriquecida por elas.
E que o rio Lee se torne uma das águas que a acompanham ao longo de sua vida."

**Assim terminava o texto da cerimônia celta da Mada💛

E essa é uma prévia das fotos (📸 da maravilhosa @khayene.lens ) da primeira comemoração da vida da nossa simba, rainha, deusa, amor infinito, do maior e melhor presente do mundo...dessa que a gente agradece e celebra toooodos os dias, mas que teve no dia 21/06, no dia do solstício de verão aqui na Irlanda, a celebração e batizado celta em agradecimento e festa pela sua vida, sua apresentação na cultura ancestral do país que ela nasceu, convidando a natureza e as deusas pra comemorar sua vida junto com todos nós 💚✨️
Vão ter mais celebrações e batizados no Brasil, mas essa foi a primeira ...e foi infinitamente linda e especial...ela tava sendo montada e pensada desde a gravidez, junto com a vida da Mada💛☀️

We are so excited to hit the streets of Dublin!

After almost a year and a half working with the most wonderful team, The Wiggle Wagon is raring for road.

I can't thank Cork City Council enough for believing in this wiggly weird idea.

I'm so grateful to everyone for doing their amazing thing on this project! Once again, I have managed to work with an almost entirely ND/disabled team and we have all supported eachother to make something we believe in.

@elisagallorosso crafted our breathtaking sculpture to be easy to maneuver and fit perfectly in my car
@ciawwaa kept us focused and produced the work, giving heaps of support with the funding application too! Thank you @promenadeireland
@judenald supported the making and swooped in to help with last minute sewing, as well as always being there to troubleshoot concepts and ideas with
My mentor Jodie O'Neill was there from the moment the idea was born, always encouraging me to push for better and believe in myself.

The outstanding team of wigglers are the heart of the project now it has exited the development phase!
I couldn't ask for a more talented or supportive group of Neurodivergent weirdos! Our kind freak-uencies are unparalleled and I'm so grateful to each and every one of their expertise. May the team continue to grow in love (and numbers)! @edaeinsamuels @kateo_yo @oxytocinforall @macha_ritual_performance @bellayoung_artist

ISL SOCIAL 💜

The incredible group of 17 people supported by Disrupt are now 7 weeks deep into their Irish Sign Language course with @irishdeafscociety 🎉

Learning over Zoom can be a little overwhelming, so we felt it was time to host our first ISL Social event where we got a chance to practice together and connect through ISL. It was so lovely to see everyone in person and have the chats 💞 Can’t wait for the next one!

Promenade is currently reviewing its Producer Support Programme and is keen to hear from emerging and established producers, self-producing artists, and those starting out on their producing journey, students and recent graduates.

The survey takes around five minutes to complete, and we would greatly appreciate your input to help shape how we design and deliver future support as part of our programme planning.
