The Performance Corporation's The Nose

The Nose
by Tom Swift

It really is hard to get ahead without a nose. And it makes things even tougher when the nose in question is gallivanting round town, proving a real hit with the ladies.

Six years after storming onto the scene with the multi award-winning Candide, The Performance Corporation make their eagerly-awaited return to Project Arts Centre with a riotous new version of Gogol's surreal satire on greed, lust and pride. This is a rare chance to catch one of Ireland's most consistently innovative and entertaining companies performing within the four walls of a theatre. The site-specific specialists have recently wowed audiences with KISS, a theatrical flash mob that stunned unsuspecting shoppers in the ILAC centre when 100 actors kissed on the main concourse, the high-speed car stunts of Drive-By, the gothic promenade of Dr Ledbetter's Experiment and the dune-diving fun of Lizzie Lavelle and the Vanishing of Emlyclough.

The Nose is the story of a self-obsessed playboy who gets trapped in a surreal face-off with his own nose.
