Stickman by Squarehead Productions presented by The National Circus Festival of Ireland

The man balances the stick on various, and sometimes awkward, parts of his body thereby setting himself and the stick in motion. If the man has an agenda he keeps it to himself. The stick gets moved around and balanced by the man and seems to not have much to say on the matter.

The television lurks in the background and throughout the performance comments and puts titles on whatever the man and stick are doing, thus dictating what the audience sees.

Born in 1987, Darragh grew up in West Cork, Ireland. He is the youngest of three siblings and the son of two professional chefs. In 2006, he completed a full-time program at the Jonglier Katakomben juggling school. Darragh completed his circus training at ACAPA with a Bachelor of Circus Arts degree in 2012. Selected as the winner of Circus Next in 2013. Author of the shows “Fragments d’un esprit”, “The Whistle”, “Stickman” and “For as Long as We’re Here”.
