Who We Are

Volunteers

First Fortnight is a charity-based organisation with the

express aim of challenging mental health prejudice

through the creative arts.

We believe the arts allow us to create a space where

people can talk about mental health issues in a non-scripted

manner. Once that conversation has begun, we hope this

will then help to change people’s perceptions about an issue

that affects us all with one in four of us set to experience

a mental health problem at some point in our lives. With

that in mind, we hope to make the First Fortnight of each

year synonymous with mental health awareness, challenging

prejudice and ending stigma.

Founded in 2009, First Fortnight staged its first two-week

arts festival in 2012.

The charity has since become a mental health service

provider with the establishment in 2013 of the First Fortnight

Centre for Creative Therapies. The centre currently employs

two psychotherapists providing art-therapy for individuals

experiencing homelessness and mental ill-health in Dublin.

The First Fortnight charity is run entirely by a core group of

volunteers.

We hope you enjoy the 2015 programme of excellent music,

film, theatre, spoken word, debate and visual art events,

and that we see you in January.

At the heart of First Fortnight is a small group of people who

dedicate their spare time to making this happen. But when

it comes to the running of the festival we are going to need

a hand. If you would like to volunteer and be a part of First

Fortnight 2015 we’d love to hear from you. We need people

from all backgrounds, so please get in touch if you can help

at all. Visit www.firstfortnight.ie/volunteer for more info.


Trailblaze - Resolution

Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin 8 Jan 1, 7pm, €15

RESOLUTION is a 90-minute creative exploration of life

from people who have met adversity and challenge

with courage and compassion. We are gathering

some inspirational and passionate trailblazers from all walks

of life together to share their personal journey and shine a

light on our collective human experience of emotional and

mental wellbeing. RESOLUTION will take place with a live

audience at Christ Church Cathedral at 7pm on New Year’s

Day, 2015. This is a landmark cultural event that connects

independent Irish collective The Trailblazery {We Need to Talk

about Ireland, Rites of Passage} with First Fortnight.Featuring

inspiring TED-style talks, interspersed with music, comedy,

poetry and a large-scale choral spectacle, the RESOLUTION

project aims to re-imagine the kind of communities, society

and culture we want to participate in today in Ireland and

beyond.

Participants include:

Joan Freeman {Pieta House} | Seamus McGuinness {Artist,

Curator of Lived Lives Project} | Dylan Tighe {Theatre Maker,

Musician} | Caroline McGuigan {Suicide or Survive} | Sean

Ó Tarpaigh {Psychotherapist, Mindfulness Teacher, Theatre

Hootenanny

St. Patrick’s Hospital, Dublin 8Jan 3, 8pm, €5

Drawing influences from Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Steve

Reich and the Flaming Lips, Irish multi-instrumentalist

and singer Kevin Nolan emerged last year with

Fredrick & the Golden Dawn, his debut album, which took

many by storm. Hot Press proclaimed that record as simply

“spell-binding” while The Last Mixed Tape called it “simply

stunning to behold”.

Now Nolan is to embark on a truly unique performance in St

Patrick’s Hospital, a place where Kevin has been a patient

and where, on the hospital piano, he wrote many of his

songs, including a duet with Choice Music Award winner

Julie Feeney. For this event Kevin will return to St Patrick’s

as a performer with many of his favorite musicians from the

Irish music scene.

In association with

The Therapy Sessions

The Workman’s Club, Wellington Quay, Dublin 2 Jan 2 & 9, 8pm, €5

A popular component of First Fortnight, the Therapy

Sessions once again brings together some of

Ireland’s brightest musicians and poets for two

unmissable Friday night shows. This year’s musical guests

include the wonderful I Have A Tribe, The Lost Brothers and

Paddy Hanna, with many more acts to be announced.

Better known to some as Patrick O’Laoghaire, I Have A

Tribe has had a busy 12 months recording his debut EP

with Rob Ellis (PJ Harvey) and Conor O’Brien of Villagers.

He has also toured Europe with Anna Calvi, opened for

Villagers’ Irish homecoming show and performed at Electric

Picnic. Expect a sublime blend of plaintive pop and folk-

tinged melancholia.

The Lost Brothers released their excellent fourth album,

New Songs Of Dawn and Dust, last year and will perform

songs from it at this year’s Therapy Sessions. The folk duo

can count Richard Hawley, Brendan Benson, Old Crow

Medicine Show and members of The Coral among their

many admirers. Come down and see just why.

A restless artist and then some, Paddy Hanna is deservedly

well regarded as one of the most prolific musicians in Dublin

and beyond. When he’s not busy singing in Grand Pocket

Orchestra or playing in Popical Island bands No Monster

Club, Ginnels and Skelocrats, he’s writing, recording and


Everyone has that

song; that tune that

gets you up when

you’re feeling down or that

track that captures exactly

how you’re feeling right

now. Music connects. First

Fortnight is set to explore that connectivity with a unique

event in St Stephen’s Green. Take two people, two playlists

and a pair of headphone splitters. As they walk together

around the Green this randomly paired couple will share a

moving musical experience of the songs that resonate with

each of them. This is an exercise in breaking down barriers,

experiencing indirectly shared emotions, movement and,

most of all, music. So come blow away those New Year

cobwebs by bringing an inquisitive mind, some comfortable

shoes, and the songs that get you through.

See www.firstfortnight.ie for details on exact meeting point.

music. His debut solo album, Leafy Stiletto, was released

last year to great acclaim both at home and abroad.

First Fortnight’s spoken word supremo Stephen James

Smith is once again behind this year’s poetry line-up, which

is as eclectic and varied as ever. On the bill are Dublin-

based solo hip-hop artist Ophelia MC, multi-award winning

Galway poet Stephen Murray, humorous Kerryman Sean

Lyons, Genevieve Healy, poet and blogger Alvy Carragher

and Andy Craven Griffiths.

Foxgloves lean but don’t fall for most of their decline and

their bell-blossoms do not ring out when they drop.

A deeply personal work exploring migrant suicide, I

Have To Say I Have To Say stemmed from the death

of the artist’s former housemate, a Polish woman

living in Ireland. Told through video, drawing, installation and

performance, the work looks at the connections between

two countries, Poland and Ireland, against Ireland’s recent

history of boom-time immigration. First Fortnight will mark the

starting point of an ongoing work by Ciara McKeon. Here’s

where it begins.

“T.S. Eliot writes ‘humankind cannot bear very much reality’

Ciara in her engulfing performance helps us to do just that.

Her performance pared back to the essence accompanies

us to a deeper, darker space.” - Anna Mortimer, from her

text on McKeon’s work Going Without at SPILL Festival

No More Secrets

Various LocationsVarious Dates

“Secrets, silent, stony sit in the dark palaces of both our

hearts: secrets weary of their tyranny: tyrants willing to be

dethroned.” James Joyce

Taking mental health conversations out of the shadows

and opening up the issue for discussion in our local

communities may not always be easy, but it does

help. With this in mind, First Fortnight set about engaging

community groups by helping to create stunning works of

art in towns across Ireland. Using street art, which was

once dismissed as vandalism and pushed to the margins

of society, we’ve set about asking; can this collaborative

approach to art-making have a positive effect on our

communities and society as a whole?

With ADW’s Rainbows Over Your Blues in situ at Portlaoise

Leisure Centre and art work popping up in Letterkenny,

Limerick city, Belfast, Rosconnell, Co. Kildare, Castlebar

and Dublin city, artist Aidan Kelly has documented First

Fortnight’s National Street Art Trail in a stunning film set to be

screened during the festival and featuring artists Friz, ADW,

Will St.Leger, Solus, Morgan, DMC, Conor Creighton & more.

Slam Sunday

Accents Café, Dublin 2Jan 4, 7pm, Free

Quick-fire poetry is the perfect mind food to tune

up the brain for the coming working week. Each

month, Slam Sunday brings some of the city’s finest

poets to Accents Coffee and Tea Lounge on the last night

of the weekend. Open to all to take part, 12 contestants

and 5 judges are drawn at random from the audience for

a lively competition that sees poems recited from memory.

With cash prizes awarded on the night, it makes sense to

have your say at this First Fortnight special event. If you

want to attend, free tickets need to be collected at 6pm in

Accents. Sign up for entry closes at 7pm.

Mixing home-baked treats with home-spun yarns,

Milk and Cookies Stories bring their storytelling and

baking magic to First Fortnight for the second year

running. The theme of this year’s show is inspired by The

Beatles, With a Little Help from My Friends, with the night

open to anyone who has a tale to tell, or wants to hear

a tale told well. Stephen James Smith, acclaimed spoken

word artist, will be the night’s featured storyteller. So come

and join us in a relaxed, friendly environment with tea, bean

bags, cookies and some new friends waiting to welcome

you. Be prepared to clap a lot!


Mnemosyne Lay in Dust

St. Patrick’s Hospital, Dublin 8Jan 7, 7pm, €5

First published in 1966, Austin Clarke’s Mnemosyne Lay

in Dust is an intensely personal and haunting narrative

poem about memory, detailing the fictional Maurice

Devane’s “nervous breakdown” and subsequent recovery.

The work is based strongly on Clarke’s own experiences as

a patient in St. Patrick’s from March 1919-1920.

In reading Clarke’s great poem in St. Patrick’s, the poem is,

in a sense, brought back to its roots. The poem will be read

by Peter Sirr, one of the leading Irish poets of his generation,

and a number of guests. The reading will be introduced

by way of Stephen Bean’s short film Mnemosyne Lay in

Dust: Memories of Austin Clarke and concluded with a post-

reading discussion.

Frank

Nationwide Screenings & Post-Show DiscussionsSee www.firstfortnight.ie for details

Michael Fassbender and Domhnall Gleeson star in

this hilarious, offbeat comedy about a wannabe

musician, Jon (Gleeson), who escapes his boring

normal life and joins an avant-garde pop band led by Frank

(Fassbender), a mysterious musical genius who hides himself

inside a large fake head, and his terrifying bandmate Clara

(Maggie Gyllenhaal).

Critically acclaimed upon its release last May, Frank poses a

series of hard questions about mental illness. Layered within

its exploration of artistic expression, Lenny Abrahamson’s

film examines our presumptions and prejudices about mental

health issues, particularly within a creative context, to leave

us with a work that engages as much as it entertains.

First Fortnight is delighted to once again partner with See

Change who contributed greatly to the success of First

Fortnight 2012, 2013 and 2014.

See Change is Ireland’s national programme to change minds

about mental health problems. Over 90 partner organisations

and hundreds of volunteers and ambassadors from every

part of Irish society have signed up to help end the stigma

and discrimination around mental health problems.

In May 2014, See Change brought us the second annual

Green Ribbon campaign to get Ireland talking about mental

Abandoned Goods

Irish Film Institute, Dublin 2Jan 3, 2pm

Abandoned Goods is a short essay film that tells the

story of the journey of the Adamson Collection.

Recently rediscovered after years of neglect, the collection

is one of the major bodies of British ‘asylum art’. It contains

around 5,500 objects (paintings, drawings, ceramics,

sculptures and works on stone, flint and bone) created

between 1946 and 1981 by patients in Netherne psychiatric

hospital in Surrey, England.

Blending archive, reconstruction, 35mm rostrum photography,

interviews and observational footage, the film explores the

transformation of the objects in the Adamson Collection,

from clinical material to revered art objects, examining the

lives of the creators and the changing contexts in which the

objects were produced and displayed.

Narrated by an unseen cataloguer, voiced by Iain Sinclair,

who comments on key works in the Collection and provides

glimpses into the lives of their creators. The result is a moving

impression of the unseen history of postwar asylum life in

the UK.

The screening will be followed by a post-show Q&A and

panel discussion.

A film by Pia Borg & Edward Lawrenson

Heaven Adores You

Irish Film Institute, Dublin 2Jan 10, 4pm

Heaven Adores You is an intimate inquiry into the life

and music of Elliott Smith. In this documentary, we

journey through the life of Steven Paul “Elliott” Smith,

a musician whose rise to prominence in the 1990s and early

2000s was cut short by his untimely death at the age of

34 in 2003.

The film – which receives its Irish premiere as part of First

Fortnight - opens in 1998, a year in which Elliott receives

an Oscar nomination for his song Miss Misery for the film

Good Will Hunting, and his album XO receives acclaim. An

interviewer inquires about his declaration that he’d never be

a rock star. Elliott thoughtfully replies, “I’m the wrong kind of

person to be really big and famous…”

What kind of person was Elliott Smith? Since his death in

2003, many have attempted to tell the story of his creative

“sadsack” genius, often through the lens of struggle,

heartache and addiction. Director Nickolas Rossi employs

a different lens, placing music centre-stage, creating a

framework for Elliott to narrate the story of his life himself,

through the filter of recorded conversations and interviews.

The screening will be followed by a post-show Q&A and

panel discussion.

My Name Is Saoirse

Smock Alley Theatre, Dublin 2Jan 8-10, 8pm, €12

1987. Saoirse lives with her da and her brother in a

peach-coloured bungalow that has been in their family

for generations. Saoirse prefers running through the

fields to chasing after boys, but her best friend Siobhán

has other ideas and after a fateful night drinking with the

lads in Wilsons, Saoirse is forced to set out on a journey

that takes her miles away from her home and the carefree

adolescence she once knew. My Name is Saoirse is a

tender and evocative coming-of-age story from award-

winning Sunday’s Child Theatre Company, fresh from their

Edinburgh and Dublin Fringe success.

There will be a post show discussion following the opening

performance.

Poor little Ireland. Trouble has beset our misfortunate

country in many guises over the years... Vikings,

famine, colonisation, religious oppression, a litany

of sporting defeats and now a stream of manufactured

bands “showcasing” Irish talent. Our collective indignity

haunts us, ruling our thoughts and deeds. How would it be

to mend these wounds in a gentle healing ceremony with

your fellow citizens? Embrace a new way of hiberno-living.

User Not Found

Axis Ballymun, Dublin 9Jan 13, 7pm, Free

Is social media destroying us all? When people go missing

or some kind of tragedy takes place, it often plays a part

in the cause and the solution. This is what Rachel’s friends

found out when she went missing. Trying to make sense of

what has happened they attempt to piece together her last

statuses and tweets. Do we ever know how to ask for help?

User Not Found is a work in development by Stefanie

Preissner, an accomplished screenwriter, playwright and

actor, and will be performed in the festival as a reading.

Stefanie’s involvement with First Fortnight stretches back

to 2013 when her play Solpadeine is My Boyfriend was

performed at the festival to huge acclaim and sold-out

performances. This reading is an early chance to hear her

latest work.

User Not Found is presented by Arts & Disability Ireland and

Axis: Ballymun in partnership with First Fortnight.

Over The Bar

The Twisted Pepper, Middle Abbey St, Dublin 1Jan 6, 8pm, €5

Injuries are occupational hazards in professional sport.

Every athlete gets them and all have to get over them. But

what if this is an injury you cannot see? What if the pain is

in your head and you cannot tell anybody about it?

Professional sports stars are no more likely to suffer from

depression than any of us; they might, though, be slower

to ask for help given the pressures to perform in public and

rivals looking for an edge over them.

Led by Irish Times journalist Jim Carroll, the Banter panel

will include leading figures from the world of sport as they

explore the issue of mental health.


We Cut Corners, Booka Brass Band, I Have A Tribe & Guests

The Button Factory, Temple Bar, Dublin 2Jan 10, 8pm, €12

The first unmissable gig of the year, First Fortnight’s

annual Button Factory soiree brings together another

typically diverse bill of musical talent aimed at

challenging mental health stigma and provoking discussion

about mental health issues. We Cut Corners are no

strangers to the festival having performed in 2012 and 2013

to huge acclaim. Since then the two-piece have ratcheted

up countless more critical plaudits with the release of their

fantastic second album, Think Nothing, a record bursting

with short, snappy start-stop/ rock-pop performed on

drums and guitar. Expect a sensational headline slot. Booka

Brass Band are Ireland’s premier New Orleans style brass

band. With regular shows all over Dublin, alongside stomping

sets at Electric Picnic, Sea Sessions and Longitude, their

incredible live energy has brought them a well-deserved

level of success. The 8-piece have been known to cover

Beyonce’s Crazy In Love and Jason Derulo’s Talk Dirty. We

wouldn’t be surprised if collaboration with We Cut Corners

is also on the cards. The night will be opened by two of

Ireland’s brightest prospects in 2015, the sublime, folk-tinged

I Have A Tribe and up-and-coming band, State Lights.

For just €12 you can expect a night of sublime musical

entertainment, but this is also a bill designed to start a

conversation and hopefully send you into 2015 with the goal

of making real social change and challenging mental health

stigma.

Stories From The FrontLiberty Hall, Dublin 1

Jan 14, 7pm, €5

Stories from the Front tells the personal stories of

people who have experienced mental ill-health,

carers and mental health professionals. In a truly

inspiring collaboration the cast tell personal stories of mental

health and our mental health services. Through recorded

narrative and dramatic enactments Stories from the Front

reminds us all that even in the most challenging of times, the

gift of human kindness and understanding is perhaps the

most powerful asset any of us has. Based on the Forum

Theatre method first developed by Augusto Boal, Stories

From The Front is interactive theatre that encourages

participation by audience members in a creative journey of

hope and inspiration.

MasksSt. Patrick’s Hospital, Dublin 8

Jan 12, 7pm, €5

Masks is a play by young people, for young

people. Born out of a desire to communicate

information about mental health issues, the Youth

Empowerment Service - a service of advocacy for young

people in hospital with mental health issues - set about

using the power of theatre to both enage and entertain.

The resulting work depicts a range of mental health topics

– from schizophrenia to OCD to eating disorders – from

the perspective of a young person as the performers use

masks to emphasise that we don’t really know what goes

on behind the disguises we wear every day.

The drama will be followed by a panel discussion

on adolescent mental health services in Ireland, with

refreshments.

A Shadow That Leans marks an exciting expansion

of First Fortnight Festival into the art form of dance.

With insight into the human psyche, from emptiness

to empowerment and chaos to acceptance, co-curators

Nick Bryson and long-term collaborator Jeff Wallace (US

based dancer/psychotherapist) shape an evening that

touches on a range of experiences of those with mental

health issues. The evening consists of five short pieces in the

theatre and plays to the strengths of the hugely expressive

dancers Karen Gleeson and Aisling O’Coineen. There will be

a discussion at the end of the evening on the issues raised

by the works.

Legitimate Bodies will also stage two dance workshops at
