About this event

Presented as part of Gradfest 2025, a collaboration of productions at The Lir Academy at Trinity College Dublin. These plays are a culmination of an intensive year of hands-on training by our MFA students in directing, producing, and set design.

Beneath a dying sky, twin sisters reunite, one returned from the stars, the other rooted in the soil of what remains. In a woodland cabin, time stretches and memory stirs.

Once destined to walk the same path, Stella and Cassie now face a future they never dreamed of, shaped by absence, wonder, and the quiet ache of survival.

Walden is a tender reckoning with the bonds of family, the cost of ambition, and the flickering light of hope in a world on the brink.

“You went up to see the world from above, I stayed to feel it crumble beneath my feet”.

New York Premiere Produced by Second Stage Theater, New York, 2024. Walden was first presented on stage by Sonia Friedman Productions.
