In Between Silence
About the show
‘In Between Silence, where we really exist’ is a collection of over 130 stories of personal significance to the storytellers, of people or events that have impacted on their lives. Ranging across time and space, from Irish and international writers and artists, including Dermot Bolger, Anne Enright, Roddy Doyle, Aidan Gillen, Paula Meehan, Marie Howe (2025 Pulitzer Poetry Prize winner) to the Australian outback and Sri Lanka and all who have a story to tell. The stories convey a vast range of human emotions.
Composer / Producer Stano, creates a musical composition for each participant in advance of their coming to the studio. He doesn’t hear the story and the participant doesn’t hear the composition until they start to record. He wants to capture the spontaneous response of each person to the music and the impact it has on their delivery.
The audience sit comfortably in the cinema and hear a range of stories, that bring them on an emotional journey, where they share in the most basic of human interactions, our desire to share the stories of our lives with each other. The stories are more than words, they connect with us at a deep level that we carry with us long after the experience.
Stano’s interest is in rediscovering the power of the shared experience of music and storytelling, of listening, of allowing our imagination to bring us on our own journey while engaging with the voice of the storyteller.
